About the book

In «Bacon is Shake-Speare,» Edwin Sir Durning-Lawrence embarks on a pioneering examination of the contentious authorship debate surrounding the works of William Shakespeare. This text intricately weaves elements of literary analysis, historical context, and biographical inquiry, positing that one of the most brilliant literary figures of the English Renaissance, Sir Francis Bacon, is the true author of the plays and sonnets traditionally attributed to Shakespeare. Durning-Lawrence employs a compelling narrative style that balances scholarly rigor with accessible language, making the intricate arguments resonate with both academics and literary enthusiasts alike. Sir Edwin Durning-Lawrence, an influential 19th-century writer and scholar, was deeply intrigued by the complexities of Shakespearean authorship, spurred by the intellectual environment of his time that questioned established literary narratives. His background in classical literature and a keen interest in Bacon's philosophical writings inspired him to synthesize historical documents, linguistic patterns, and thematic parallels, ultimately presenting a case that challenges long-held convictions about the Bard's identity and oeuvre. This book is an essential read for anyone captivated by literary puzzles, the historical context of Elizabethan England, or the ongoing debates in literary scholarship. Durning-Lawrence's thorough research and provocative assertions compel readers to reconsider not just the works of Shakespeare, but the very nature of authorship itself.
