A Fascinating Ongoing Problem, Not a Foregone Conclusion

 

The Shakespeare plays have attracted a degree of cultural reverence and vehement emotion normally reserved for religion.

When rival claimants to the Shakespeare authorship, such as Sir Francis Bacon or the Earl of Oxford, emerged from the mid 19th century onwards, these too attracted myth-making and partisan champions.
