The question of authenticity of Shakespeare and his works has always been an issue. Scientists have to prove the existence of the great author, there is a special foundation in Stratford-upon-Avon that works with the audience. The most recent news you can read in this BBC article.
What do you think?
Yes, I had also heard about this idea of Shakespeare being non-existent or a group of writers.
AtbildētDzēstWho knows...
In my opinion this is actually not a thing to talk much about as the works of "his" are great.
Exactly my opinion! I have had a wonderful opportunity to participate in a course "Shakespeare and the 21st century literature" which took place in Stratford. While being there I had a feeling that He was still around, so much adored, praised and for a reason, I would say :)
