Excerpt from Bacon and Shakespeare
The conclusions I have formed with respect to the two cipher revelations which are now agitating the minds° of both Shakespeareans and Baconians are derived partly from my estimate of the character of Bacon, partly from the apparent sincerity of Mrs. Gallup, and partly again from what I know of other and entirely independent decipherations of further Bacon messages, which are now being actively made in this country. Of Mrs. Gallup I only know that which her book and her publishers reveal. Of Dr. Orville W. Owen, the discoverer of the word-cipher I learn, front an American source, quoted by way of a testimonial in one of the doctor's books, that he is a man who has reached middle age, and who has never shown the slightest sign of possessing unusual or extraordinary literary skill, or genius. In other words, his sponsors assure us that he is incapable of writing those portions of Shakespeare which form so great a part of his decipherations, or even the connecting passages which appear to have been contributed by Bacon. We must accept this opinion as a tribute of personal character.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating tome delves into the contentious Baconian theory that Francis Bacon, not William Shakespeare, was the true author of the renowned plays attributed to the latter. The author meticulously examines the evidence, comparing the lives and characters of these two extraordinary figures. While acknowledging Bacon's brilliance as a philosopher, the book thoroughly debunks the notion that he could have possessed the poetic genius, humanity, and profound understanding of nature that are the hallmarks of Shakespeare's works. Through a detailed analysis of Bacon's manipulative, self-serving, and often ruthless behavior, the author argues convincingly that his nature was fundamentally incompatible with the creation of Shakespeare's literary masterpieces. Ultimately, this book serves as a compelling defense of Shakespeare's authorship, offering insights into the true nature of artistic genius and the enduring power of human creativity.
