(574) The missing playwright Shakespeare


               Alexander Waugh's  missing playwright Shakespeare





In the Book Palladis Tamia (1598)  the author Francis Meres talks about 2 Lists of the best playwrights for comedies (17)  and for tragedies (12)

Oxfordian Alexander Waugh takes from those 2  Lists the 22 Contemporary playwrights who have been active in the London theater scene before 1598 and who were virtually all
connected to Each Other,  with the  very remarkable exception of Shakespeare, with no contemporary record  whatsoever linking HIM to Anyone 
of those playwrights during his Lifetime.-
And  Yet he is the most famous playwright of his days.-  
I can fully agree with Waugh's observation and explanation
(at the end: It is as if ...
there was  no playwright called William Shakespeare at the time!



There was, however at the time a "true" poet genius, a literary Giant  and playwright superstar in London: ...  who was by no means Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford

but unquestionably Christopher Marlowe. 
What a shame: from a certain age onward men (even Alexander Waugh)  can no longer jump over their shadows!
The authorship solution ( A Proposal!)
