William Shakespeare and the enduring fame of a world genius
A dense antiquarian essay defends Shakespeare as the true author of the plays, arguing against confounding theories that he could not have written them. It traces birth in Stratford, move to London, and death, and extols his character, influence, and the lasting impact of his works across centuries. The piece cites critics, editors, and contemporaries while asserting the inviolable genius of the Stratford-born playwright.
