            Social prejudice against the provincials

                                            English literature professor 

favours William  from Stratford

  

The English literature professor emeritus Prof. Manfred Pfister (FU Berlin)  (2015) wrote  in "Der Tagesspiegel"  (21.4.2015) an article  "Broken Heroes" on the occasion of the yearly meeting of the Dtsch.Shakespeare Society:  

 it seems not surprising that Prof.Manfred Pfister, touching at the end of his article the Shakespeare Autorship question, favours the man from Stratford and not the potential "rival candidates" Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford, or Francis Bacon : 

   for Pfister 

 the major cause for the longstanding authorship                  debate is primarily the social prejudice against the provincials

("Hicks", Shakspere from Stratford).  

Is this the reason that Pfister  deliberately ignored the plausible candidate Christopher Marlowe  because his main argument would be invalid otherwise?:
Marlowe also came  from the province and from a modest background and was a brilliant poet-dramatist  and cultural hero.-

What may be the reason

of this enormous prejudice of acedemic 

Shakespeare experts  against  Marlowe?
