William Lowes Rushton demonstrated impressively already in 1909 that
Shakespeare extensively used similar word and phrases in his plays we already find in "The Arte of English Poesie"...
On the 25th year of Marlowe's life, a book -->“The Arte of English Poesie”(1589) was published anonymously. It is one of the most amazing celebrated treatises on poetry that have been handed down to us from Elizabethan times.
The work was written with the intention that it should be dedicated to Queen Elizabeth, but there was a change in plans, and William Cecil, Lord Burghley's name was substituted for dedication. It was printed by Richard Field, William Cecil's and Shakespeare's printer, and exhibited the same title Emblem "Anchor of Hope", we find on Shakespeare’s first and second literary work "Venus and Adonis" (1593) and "Lucrece" (1594).
Critics have found great difficulties in settling the point of authorship. Strangely the book is attributed unchallenged today to George Puttenham because of weird reasons of references.
Already more than a century ago William Lowes Rushton published a book: “-->Shakespeare and ‘The Arte of English Poesie’ ”(1909), in which he demonstrated impressively that Shakespeare did not only introduce in his plays many of the figures which the author of "The Arte...." describes, but also extensively used similar word and phrases in his plays we already find in "The Arte of English poesie"...
So far no one dared to conclude of this anonymous author (1589, 4 years prior to Marlowe's presumed death), it may lean toward the
dramatist Marlowe / alias Shakespeare being the author
and sole creator of "The Arte of English Poesie".-
Is it conceivable that at the climax of the literary talent of Londons poet and Superstar Marlowe [see--> Marlowe/ alias Shakespeare Thesis] in his 25th year of life (1589), an unknown highly educated author Puttenham wrote nothing else [-->one exception] than this essay of highest profile on "The Art of English Poesie?"
If the "The Arte... " exhibiting such powerful parallels with the language displayed in Shakespeare's plays and if the language displayed in the poems "Venus and Adonis" and "Lucrece" (1593-4) is so closely connected, why it is'nt more likely, that it represents the sophisticated literary achievement of our (unnamed thus unidentifiable) poet genius?
