Produktbeschreibung
Taking the anti-Stratfordian view of the Shakespeare authorship question (SAQ) for granted, these essays delve into various topics that still divide those who have adopted this perspective. These include the Prince Tudor hypothesis, the various primary Shakespeare texts and their di¿erences, the idea that the man from Stratford was a front-man for the real author of the Shakespeare plays, and the Stanley-as-Shakespeare hypothesis. A basic theme running through these essays is that the very question, who was Shakespeare?, may be misleading if one is looking to ¿nd a particular individual to ¿ t the bill. By now it is pretty clear that the plays at least are the work of more than one hand, and that the name "Shakespeare" has an emblematic character (¿rst recognized by Delia Bacon) that goes beyond individual authorship as it is commonly understood.

Autorenporträt
The author has spent most of the last 50 years working as a research scientist, ¿rst in psychology and then in computer science. He is now retired but still actively engaged with the latter ¿ eld. During the past half century he has made contributions of some signi¿cance in areas ranging from animal behavior to arti¿cial intelligence and combinatorial optimization. A major current interest is the application of arti¿cial intelligence techniques to topics of intellectual inquiry and debate in order to raise general standards and weed out bad ideas. In the author's opinion, a prime candidate for such bracing treatment is the area of Shakespeare scholarship, where di¿erent camps hold starkly di¿ rent views on the question of authorship as well as other matters, and where one ¿nds a proliferation of questionable claims and fanciful assertions, some of which, however, may be true.
