Stratfordians: "Oh this play seems to have influenced Shakespeare, in fact, if you add the missing characters from The Taming of A Shrew to the botched folio version of The Taming of the Shrew as Alexander Pope did, it makes more sense dramatically. Just a weird coincidence."
Stratfordians: "It seems like Shakespeare was deeply influenced by the translation of Cardanus Comfort, which was co-incidentally dedicated to the Earl of Oxford, commissioned by him, & contains a dedication written by him. This is another coincidence."
All of this "weirdness" disappears when you realize that many of these "coincidences" are just cases of Oxford& #39;s anonymous juvenalia being compared to his later revisions & perfections of the same material.
"The Tragicall Historye of Romeus and Juliet" published by Arthur Brooke in 1562 is not the "inspiration" of the later Romeo & Juliet-- it was one of Oxford& #39;s juvenalias which he returned to & perfected after incorporating more incidences from his own life into it.
Of course the most absurd proposition is to incorporate the POEMS of Shake-speare (devoted to an imprisoned noble who was at one time engaged to Oxford& #39;s daughter), especially the autobiographical & chronlogically arranged Sonnets, into the biography of a ghost.
Stratfordians: "Yes, it appears that the Fair Youth in the Sonnets is the very same Earl of Southampton Henry Wriothesly of the dedications to Venus & Adonis & The Rape of Lucrece... we don& #39;t understand why or how this upstart crow named William Shakespeare knew him."
"But why would a noble write under a fake name during a time of intense court intrigue over the succession of the crown after Elizabeth... Even when Elizabeth recognized herself in the figure of Richard II saying "& #39;I am Richard II know you not that?"
It& #39;s a crime that proper scholarship on this is considered insanity while the "proper scholars" literally hallucinate a biography of a Magical Commoner which is then taught as "the unquestionable truth."
