| Summary: | "This book consists of essays on Shakespeare's plays and related matters written from an Oxfordian viewpoint (that is, under the assumption that the author was Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford). The first section consists of reviews of performances of the plays, frequently from the 1978-82 BBC series. Other sections explore possible awareness of Oxford's authorship by Sir Walter Scott and Herman Melville. There are detailed analyses of Two Gentlemen of Verona, The Winters's Tale, and Cymbeline, whose putative hero, Posthumus, is identified with the historical figure Henry VII."--Back cover |
