Download As PDF : The Case for Edward de Vere as Shakespeare Geoffrey Eyre Books
Edward de Vere the 17th Earl of Oxford was a generous patron of writers, actors and musicians in the London of Queen Elizabeth I. But was he also William Shakespeare, the greatest writer in the English language? The reasons for believing so are set out clearly in this study. The author is a member of the De Vere Society but writes as an independent scholar.
The Case for Edward de Vere as Shakespeare Geoffrey Eyre Books
Geoffrey Eyre has provided an excellent introductory overview of the strongest candidate in the Shakespeare Authorship Question. Edward DeVere, 17th Earl of Oxford, is presented in thorough and responsible fashion as the likely author behind the obvious pseudonym. Anderson's Shakespeare By Another Name, Beauclerk's Shakespeare's Lost Empire, Chiljan's Shakespeare's Unorthodox Biography, Whittemore's The Monument... meticulous, in-depth treatments of DeVere, the "Prince Tudor Theory" and the Canon, the illiterate commoner from Stratford, and the meaning behind the sonnets, respectively, are essential to Shakepeareans with an interest in the truth. Eyre gives the "entry level" SAQ student a solid first look into the compelling arguments that orthodox Stratfordians persist in trying, and failing, to shut down. They would if they could. It becomes increasingly clear that they can't, and Eyre's work effectively summarizes why.Product details

The Case for Edward de Vere as Shakespeare Geoffrey Eyre Books Reviews
1. We have poems with de Vere's name on them. Compare them to the plays and Sonnets with Shakespeare's name on them, and be truthful, do you really think this guy wrote Shakespeare? And, of course, altho de Vere was said to write comedies, none of his plays made it thought the passage of time. So we don't know if he had the tremendous talent that shows up in the plays. Meres let it be known that her wrote plays and he had his own troupe of players. So why would he need a pseudonym? He wouldn't. End of story. That last nail in the coffin he died in 1604, before one third of the plays were performed.and many of those did not make it into quarto form. And how could an illiterate actor like Shakespeare fool the entire company for more than 20 years. de Vere's candidacy requires a profound suspension of disbelief.
Mr. Eyre’s case for Edward DeVere is a strong one in this readable and involving book. He uses each chapter to focus in on specific documented experiences from DeVere’s life and travels and clearly shows how they connect to the written works of Shakespeare the languages he spoke, the places he traveled, his extensive education, his love life, historic events in the court, dealing with servants and violent episodes, even why he could write so eloquently about medicine, law, astrology, music, falconry, the Bible, depression and much more. Appendix B is also extremely helpful with over one hundred twenty-five people listed alphabetically who played a part in DeVere’s life. Mr. Eyre shows how those same people probably appeared as specific Shakespearean characters in his plays. The brief DeVere family tree at the back of the book can be helpful for those new to the Oxfordian theory of authorship.
