William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare literary legacy is perhaps the richest in the world: 37 plays, 154 sonnets, 2 long narrative poems, and miscellaneous verses. Yet there are but two likenesses of him with any claims to authenticity; no letters or diaries to reveal his personal feelings; and in his own handwriting only a variety of scrawled signatures
and 147 lines of a scene he contributed to a collaborative play written about the year 1595 but suppressed by the censors.
Although William Shakespeare's accomplishments as a dramatist were acknowledged by his contemporaries, he himself thought that his poems would bring whatever enduring fame he merited. The complete canon of his plays was published only seven years after his death in 1616, and some scholars still do not accept all these as coming entirely from his pen. Would-be biographers have available to them only sketchy details with which to reconstruct a life?
What would you think about these claims? Anyone has got any critical study which reveals proves to what is being raised through all these years about his work? In the end like alien autopsies and the second gunman, the belief that someone other than a glover's son from Stratford wrote William Shakespeare's works  is a conspiracy theory that refuses to die and it offers him eternity of soul through words only a man of all times could have written them.

Interesting fact. Did you knkw he wrote everything without a word processor or even a type writer? Lets see the smug millenials try that!
