Thanks for the link. I know I should have read it from start to finish (and may well do when I've a bit more time), but it is quite long and also - in my view (and I did read the first half) - so suppositious as to become rather absurd. I'm actually more inclined to believe that Marlowe may have written Shakespeare's plays than I am to believe that this verbal detection provides the evidence of it. I lost the plot when the author moved away from the monument inscription to the adjoining gravestone inscription, added the word 'Christ' which wasn't there (!) and theorised that this was a 'code' for 'Christopher Marlowe' (!) I presume the article goes on to explain the motive for Shakespeare or Ann Hathaway or whoever officiated his burial wanting to expose his non-authorship of his plays, but I didn't get that far. Sorry Dave, I'm up for a good old conspiracy theory as much as the next person, but this one is too convoluted. It's like the claim that the existence of God can be proved (or disproved) by mathematical equation - yes, but so what! Reply #20. Oct 02 09, 11:29 AM |
