Don John from Much Ado is a forerunner of Iago.) Harold Bloom's book is terrific. Harold might need a pie in the face, though.Nancynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-60558262488283407282011-07-19T12:47:04.974-04:002011-07-19T12:47:04.974-04:00It's a mystery, and as Ramona said quite unsol...It's a mystery, and as Ramona said quite unsolvable unless something long lost comes along to show proof.<br />ITMT--sure, anything to turn the scholary statis quo on its ear.

What's wrong with believing that Will wrote the Shakespeare plays and sonnets himself, all by his lonesome? There are lots of writers who cross genres and write comedy as well as tragedy and everything in between. No reason to think that William Shakespeare wouldn't be able to. I'll be the first to admit I know very little about it, though. I've read and acted in Shakespeare's plays, but I've never made a point to brush up on the various conspiracy theories concerning the authorship.Jennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01442754671445893599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-22261168146707472512011-07-19T08:39:46.633-04:002011-07-19T08:39:46.633-04:00Martha,
