Francis Bacon Our Shakespeare is a book written by Edwin Reed that explores the theory that Francis Bacon, rather than William Shakespeare, was the true author of the plays and sonnets attributed to Shakespeare. Reed presents evidence from Bacon's life and writings that suggest he had the knowledge, experience, and motivation to write the works. The book also examines the historical and cultural context of the Elizabethan era, as well as the controversy and mystery surrounding the authorship question. Reed's argument challenges the traditional view of Shakespeare as the sole author of his works and offers a new perspective on the literary and cultural legacy of the Elizabethan era.Coincidences; The Early Authorship of Shake-Speare; The Late Authorship of Shake-Speare; The Place of the Shake-Speare Dramas in Bacon's System of Philosophy; The Classical Element in the Plays; Johnson's Masque, �������Time Vindicated;������� Bacon's Poetic Gifts; Origin of the Pseudonym Shake-Speare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
