SHAKSPERE / SHAKESPEARE
BIOGRAPHY AND AUTHORSHIP CONTROVERSY

• Shakspere of Stratford -- the traditional biography.
• The Shakspere Signatures -- all that survives from Stratford Will.
• The First Folio Portrait -- something from 1623.
• The Stratford Monument -- a fishy revision.
• The Other Shakespeares -- the search for someone brighter than Stratford Will.
• Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford -- Shake-speare.
