Wishing all of you Shakespeare Lovers a time of Love and Peace and Joy. Of course, in my view anyone involved in the Authorship Question is more of a Shakespeare Lover than those who are satisfied with the status quo.
Oxfordians are anti-Stratfordian, yes, but far more important is that we are pro-Shakespearean. Why? Because we care about the author, knowing that all works of the imagination have their roots in the author’s life — in the same way that knowing the life of Samuel Clemens is the entranceway into a deeper understanding of the works attributed to Mark Twain.
And happy New Year to all!
