Anti-Stratfordians—a collective term for adherents of the various alternative-authorship theories—believe that Shakespeare of Stratford was a front to shield the identity of the real author or authors, who for some reason did not want or could not accept public credit. ]]> 2017-03-27 13:18:49 UTC https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/162800708 zaria_mackenzie https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/162800887 Evidence for the Bard having written his plays comes from the First Folio of 1623. This book compiled 36 of William's plays, recording and publishing them for the first time. Its co-author John Hemminges was also a shareholder of the Globe and belonged to the same acting company (The Lord Chamberlain’s Men later named The King’s men) as did Shakespeare and so would have been privy to the true author.

 In 1593, the narrative poem Venus and Adonis was published by Stratford native Richard Field, with a dedication to the Earl of Southampton signed "William Shakespeare." . It is manifestly not the work of one nobleman addressing another, as Oxfordians believe. The following year, The Rape of Lucrece was published, also with a dedication to Southampton signed by William Shakespeare.
In 1601, the volume Loves Martyr by Robert Chester contained short poems by several well-known theatrical poets. One of these poems (untitled in the volume, but now known as "The Phoenix and the Turtle") is signed "William Shakespeare."
In 1609, the volume Shake-speares Sonnets was published by Thomas Thorpe. Whether one believes that the publication was authorized or not, the volume is clearly attributed to "Shakespeare."
Many plays were also attributed in print to William Shakespeare.]]> 2017-03-27 13:19:25 UTC https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/162800929 zaria_mackenzie https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/162801100 William Shakespeare acted in his plays. From 1594 on, the plays of William Shakespeare were performed exclusively by the acting company variously known as the Lord Chamberlain's Men (1594-96, 1597-1603), Lord Hunsdon's Men (1596-97), and the King's Men (1603-42). William Shakespeare was a prominent member of this acting company, as the following evidence demonstrates. On 19 May 1603 the Lord Chamberlain's Men were licensed as the King's Men. The document lists "Lawrence Fletcher, William Shakespeare, Richard Burbage, Augustyne Phillippes, Iohn Heninges, Henrie Condell, William Sly, Robert Armyn, Richard Cowly" as members of the troupe. Shakespeare's prominence is indicated by the fact that he appears second on the list, behind only Lawrence Fletcher, who had acted for King James in Scotland, and who was was the king's favorite actor.]]> 2017-03-27 13:19:45 UTC https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/162801100 zaria_mackenzie https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/163423388 "Expectation is the root of all headache." - William Shakespeare. ]]> 2017-03-29 13:53:54 UTC https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/163423388 zaria_mackenzie https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/163426016 "Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none." - William Shakespeare ]]> 2017-03-29 14:00:55 UTC https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/163426016 zaria_mackenzie https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/163426472 "Hell is empty, all the devils are here." - William Shakespeare ]]> 2017-03-29 14:02:03 UTC https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/163426472 zaria_mackenzie https://padlet.com/zaria_mackenzie/7vj8r5jh8rep/wish/163426828 http://shakespeareauthorship.com/howdowe.html
