sHakEspeArE’S Plays shows deep, extensive knowledge that only
Bacon had. Many particulars in the plays coincide with facts in the
life of Bacon but not in the life of Shakespeare. Opinions
expressed in the plays are known to match Bacon’s personal
opinions. Observations of character and human nature agree, to the
smallest detail, with Bacon’s observations on the “Art
of Discerning Character”.
Scientific errors based on Bacon’s theories are found in
the plays, as well as errors in quotations and alterations in the
use of words. Studies of Bacon at known periods of his life are
introduced into plays at about the same time period. Where there
are several editions of the same play, the latter edition reflects
Bacon’s increased knowledge and new interests.
The vocabulary of Bacon and Shakespeare is, to a surprising
degree, the same. Bacon’s most familiar expressions of speech
are common in the plays, although not in common to the language of
the period. Combinations of two or three of Bacon’s ideas
often appear in one sentence or passage, presented with a similar
linking or combination of words. A large collection of similes,
metaphors, and figurative forms of speech are found to be shared by
the two. Superstitions and religious beliefs and opinions traceable
in the plays are plainly acknowledged by Bacon.
Finally, another claim states that concealed messages claiming
the authorship of Shakespearean plays can be found within the plays
themselves. Compelling evidence or mere coincidence? It’s up
to you to research the matter in depth and figure it out for
yourself.
