Abstract
Though Shakespeare's body of writing is widely familiar and fanatically studied, its author remains veiled in a shadow of suspicion. The conventional biography of Shakespeare credits William of Stratford with the canon, yet there is an alarmingly feeble body of evidence to support his authorship. From the mists of doubt, many candidates for "Shakespeare" have emerged. The most compelling of these is Edward de Vere, 17 1h Earl of Oxford, whose position, education, travel experiences and life legacy coincide beautifully with the profile of the Shakespearen author. Most significantly, though, de Vere's personal circumstances, unique knowledge and historically documented experiences emerge with staggering consistency within the literature, itself.
