A paradigm Change/Shift will only slowly arrive
if we change from the Oxford theory to the more robust and defendable Marlowe theory...

Those who make the statement: "The scientific question of Shakespeare’s authorship is settled, there is no room for discussion" need to read Thomas S. Kuhn „ The Structure of Scientific Revolutions“ published 1962 and come to grips with the reality that all knowledge is inevitably socially constructed.- Thomas Kuhn popularized the phrase „paradigm shift“ (which he didn’t use) and gave it the meaning it has today. After Kuhn Science is not an objective search for "truth" as many people believe. Instead, "normal science" is a problem solving endeavor. When it leads to anomalies that can no longer be explained within the established paradigm, crisis ensues which is resolved through the establishment of a new paradigm. This is the case for the Stratford dogma, which causes more problems than it solves. Its widely-held prevailing concept needs a paradigm shift, a re-orientation involving the incorporation of new concepts into mainstream thought, new information seemingly contradictory or radically different from the traditional view |
