The more you two discuss this, the more my thought about the writer of Shakespeare being an alien, seems to fit in better.

Yup!

William Shakespeare the alien with a bowling ball which is really the skull that Hamlet cradled so affectionately.

If you mean the topical references in the works:

The best cipher evidence in the First Folio points the Roger Manners,
the 5th Earl of Rutland; but it could have been a lot of people.

Yup! Looks like you'd better write your Novel and straighten all this stuff out, Art. Think you'll get it done by Party Time New Years Eve :?: :b: :?:

Even after perusing your latest links, i still lean toward an alien as doing all the writing. There's just toooo many things that even though they look good, just don't quite fit together.

Greene Lettice

Post by neufer » Fri Oct 28, 2011 6:35 pm

---------------------------------------------------------
One "Thomas Greene, alias Shakspere" was buried
in Stratford-upon-Avon on March the 6th, 1590.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
<<Thomas Greene, son of Thomas Greene and Isabel Lingen, married
Lettice Tutt of West Meane, Southampton by whom he had six children
including an Anne (b. 1604) and a William (b. 1608). He is also the
same Thomas Greene who contributed a commentary poem to the 1603
edition of Michael Drayton's _The Baron's Wars_. Lived in Stratford.
Family was descended from the "Tamworth" Greenes. Apprentice to the
Law in the "Middle Temple" 1623. Lived for a while in Bristow.>>
------------------------------------------------------------------
<<[Among Thomas Greene's fellow students at the Middle Temple]
there was *John MANNINGham* , the now-famous diarist who described
a performance of *Twelfth Night* in the Middle Temple hall on
February 2, 1602 and told a bawdy anecdote about Shakespeare
and Richard Burbage. Manningham knew *GREENE* ,
and quotes him in his diary for February 5, 1603:
.
"There is best sport always when you put a woman on the case.">>
.
Greene was called to the bar that summer, after which he moved
to Stratford (where he had already represented the town
in some business matters) and became town clerk.>>
. - p.384 _Shakespeare a life_ by Park Honan

___ All's Well That Ends Well Act 1, Scene 1

HELENA: O, were that all! I think not on my father;
. And these great tears grace his remembrance more
. Than those I shed for him. What was he like?
. I have forgot him: my imagination
. Carries no favour in't but Bertram's.
. I am undone: there is no living, none,
. If Bertram be away. 'Twere all one
. That I should love a bright particular star
. And think to wed it, he is so above me:
. In his bright radiance and collateral light
. Must I be comforted, not in his sphere.
. The ambition in my love thus plagues itself:
. The hind that would be mated by the lion
. Must die for love. 'Twas pretty, though plague,
. To see him every hour; to sit and draw
. His arched brows, his hawking eye, his curls,
. In our heart's table; heart too capable
. Of every line and trick of his sweet favour:
. But now he's gone, and my idolatrous fancy
. Must sanctify his reliques. Who comes here?.

................................................
HELENA: Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie,
. Which we ascribe to heaven: the fated sky
. Gives us free scope, only doth backward pull
. Our slow designs when we ourselves are dull.
. What power is it which mounts my love so high,
. That makes me see, and cannot feed mine eye?
. The mightiest space in fortune nature brings
. To join like likes and kiss like native things.
. Impossible be strange attempts to those
. That weigh their pains in sense and do suppose
. What hath been cannot be: who ever strove
. So show her merit, that did miss her love?
. The king's disease--my project may deceive me,
. But my intents are fix'd and will not leave me.

The picture was given to two tailoring journals. 'The Tailor and Cutter', March 1911 and 'The Gentleman's Tailor', April 1911 .

This was proved by cutting out the two halves of the coat and showing them shoulder to shoulder.>>
http://www.william-shakespeare.info/william-shakespeare-droeshout-engraving.htm wrote:
William Shakespeare : The Droeshout Engraving

<<Many opinions have been expressed about the copper engraving picture - and they are far from complimentary. "Ludicrous" and "Monstrous" are some terms that have been consistently applied. Sam Schoenbaum the author of Shakespeare's Lives, wrote the following:

"...a huge head, placed against a starched ruff, surmounts an absurdly small tunic with oversized shoulder-wings...Light comes from several directions simultaneously: it falls on the bulbous protuberance of forehead ... that 'horrible hydrocephalous development', as it has been called ... creates and odd crescent under the right eye..." - Sam Schoenbaum

"A hard, wooden, staring thing." - Richard Grant White

"Even in its best state, it is such a monstrosity that, I for one, do not believe that it has any trustworthy exemplar." - C. M. Ingleby

"The face is long and the forehead high; the one ear which is visible is shapeless; the top of the head is bald, but the hair falls in abundance over the ears." - Sir Sidney Lee

Well, at first glance one cannot help but agree! So what on earth was Martin Droeshout the engraver thinking of? Surely such an illustration, on an important 900 page document, commissioned by the powerful Pembroke family would have been immediately rejected as quite grotesque? Why did they choose Droeshout as the engraver? Would they really have entrusted such an important task to a raw apprentice, apparently incompetent, with no talent and no sense of proportion or perspective?

Martin Droeshout made engravings of many famous and important people. These included John Donne, the Duke of Buckingham, the Bishop of Durham, the Marquis of Hamilton and Lord Coventry. Most significant is that in 1631 Martin Droeshout was commissioned with the second edition of Crooke's "Mikrokosmographia" this was a massive folio containing over 1000 pages. He therefore must have had an excellent reputation as an accomplished engraver. So is there may be more to the First Folio engraving than meets the eye.

There are many peculiarities about the engraving which have strengthened the arguments of the Shakespeare Identity and Authorship Problem. The following comments and speculations have been made by various experts about the engraving.

The Head: The head is out of all proportion with the body. There is a peculiar line running from the ear down to the chin. Does this signify that the face is in fact a mask? The mask speculation was suggested by Sir Edwin Durning-Lawrence (author of Bacon is Shakespeare) who stated that it was a cunningly drawn cryptographic picture. Could it be an Actor's mask or even someone's Death Mask? Is it a mask attached to the back of someone's head? It has also been suggested that the eyes are wrong as they are in fact two left eyes. So we start the trail of the possible concealed messages in the Martin Droeshout engraving of William Shakespeare...

The Doublet: The engraving on the doublet is quite intricate but on closer inspection it seems to show according to Sir Edwin Durning-Lawrence, author of 'Bacon is Shakespeare', the front of the right arm is on one side but, 'without doubt', the back of the left arm on the other side. The picture was given to two tailoring journals. 'The Tailor and Cutter', March 1911 and 'The Gentleman's Tailor', April 1911 . Both these trade journals agreed that the figure was clothed in a coat composed of the back and the front of the same left arm. This was proved by cutting out the two halves of the coat and showing them shoulder to shoulder.

We are not tailors but these experts seem to be adamant that the figure was clothed in a coat composed of the back and the front of the same left arm. And indeed it does look like this, but we were still uneasy about the whole subject. During our research into engravings we found a similar doublet! The engraving below depicts The Duke of Brunswick and Sir Francis Bacon. Same peculiarity with the doublet, the face appears to be split into two distinct halves depicting both Brunswick and Bacon. We then started to look at portraits from the era and found another similar doublet. Are the expert tailors incorrect? Have any recent investigations by tailors been made into this theory? Can any historians confirm whether doublets were occasionally designed this way?

The Collar: It has been suggested that the type of collar depicted on the engraving did not exist. This is not a style of collar that has ever been traced to any one else during this era, it appears to be completely unique. The head does not appear to be connected to the body but is sitting on the collar. We were intrigued by the Droeshout picture. The collar, as depicted, would have been an impossible part of Shakespeare's apparel - the collar looks solid, it has no fastenings, how would you put this on? So we looked at the collar at all angles - if it was not a collar what else could it possibly be?

We were intrigued by the Droeshout picture. The collar, as depicted, would have been an impossible part of Shakespeare's apparel - the collar looks solid, it has no fastenings, how would you put this on? So we looked at the collar at all angles - if it was not a collar what else could it possibly be? It suddenly dawned on us that it looked like a shield. We cannot trace any other authors who have made a similar suggestion in relation to a collar / shield theory.

It is really odd but once the observation has been made you can no longer see the collar as anything but a shield. The shape of the collar would be an unusual design for a shield as it has a concave, or bowed, top. All of the shields that we were familiar with had a straight top. There also appears to be a shield within a shield. Did such a shield design exist? Was there some significance to a shield within a shield? Our next step, of course, was to trace any shields of a similar design with the distinctive concave top shape. The image illustrates the premise, together with our findings, and provides the opportunity for our visitors to take an even closer look.

From our research and investigations it would appear that, according to 17th century heraldic rules, a shield within a shield signifies brethren. (Ref: A Display of Heraldire (1610) by John Guillim - this states that "this sort of imborduring heere spoken of, to be of the number of differences of brethren") It is perhaps no coincidence that the First Folio was dedicated to the two Pembroke brothers, Philip and William, referred to in the dedication of the Folio as 'the most Noble and incomparable paire of Brethren' Their father the Earl of Pembroke was the leader of the English Rosicrucian movement and their mother was the Countess of Pembroke. After looking at hundreds of shields, we have only been able to trace one authentic shield that fits the description...>>

Many Elizabethans (e.g., Edward Dyer & Francis Bacon) were Rosicrucians

That's the Shakespeare burial hoax!!!

As Beyond has already correctly deduced, Will Shakspere a.k.a. William Shakespeare was in fact an alien. Not only that, but he was never buried, since he is still living here with us!!!
Image

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the compelling new evidence. Hear the shocking truth:

Dr. Michael Delahoyde is in fact William Shakespeare!!!
Image
How is this possible?

Well, being an alien, William Shakespeare (a.k.a. Delta Horologium, or Delahoyde, Michael) is in possession of spacetime travel. He was sent by the people of Delta Horologium b to the Earth to encourage the cultural evolution of Homo Sapiens according to the Delta Hor Semi-Prime Directive. Changing his shape from a Horologian into William Shakespeare, he took up a spectacular playwright's career, helping to shape the thoughts of humanity according to the wishes of Delta Horologians by creating and helping to set up plays like Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth and Richard III. Thanks to the intervention of the friendly Horologians, humanity has been too busy pondering the meaning of phrases like To be or not to be, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore Art thou Romeo?, Is this a dagger that I see before me? and A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse! to do much damage to the larger universe.
Image
After completing his mission by giving humanity the immortal Shakespearean plays to ponder, the visitor from Delta Horologium b arranged a fake funeral of his eartly incarnation and returned home. However, lately humanity has become too lazy to study Shakespeare and has been up to no good, and the concerned Horologians sent their envoy back to us, now in the shape of Delahoyde, Michael. His new mission, now that humanity has grown tired of pondering William Shakespeare's works, is to distract us by making us ponder William Shakespeare's person instead.

Our alien visitor's transformation from himself to William Shakespeare to himself to Michael Delahoyde wasn't perfectly successful, since in his latest incarnation he couldn't do away with his Shakespearean receding hairline, and since the travails of spacetime travel left him shaggier than usual and gave him a more generous waist.

In this stellar chart at right, you can find Delta Horologium next to Alpha Horologium at ten o'clock.

No, no! You need to be a defender the status quo, owlice.

Our society could not function without a blind trust in all certified experts.

The fact that there might be a few bad apples (e.g., Bernie Madoff, Lehman Brothers, the Stratford Birthplace Trust) is no excuse to permit anyone to doubt.

Our society could not function without a blind trust in all certified experts.

The fact that there might be a few bad apples (e.g., Bernie Madoff, Lehman Brothers, the Stratford Birthplace Trust) is no excuse to permit anyone to doubt.

Stand up for what you believe :!:
neufer, the longer you continue in the vein you have taken here, the more you bring to mind a conspiracy theorist. These last two posts you addressed to me especially could pretty much have been written by any conspiracy theorist about anything, whether regarding face-on-Mars, the moon landing, the Kennedy assignation, alien visitation, or whatever, with just a few changes in nouns.

I'm pretty disappointed. You haven't even tried to make your case. You say, "This couldn't be! He couldn't have!" and stamp your cyber-foot, but you haven't laid out an argument. Appealing to who you (apparently) consider authorities (who have a movie and a book to hawk, respectively) doesn't make your case. I find it sad that you (apparently) think it does.

If you have a case, try making it rationally in your own words without the rabidness. Or don't; you don't really have the patience to do so anyway, right? Right.

Ok, Ann, can you prove that :?: Can you post a copy of your kookie certification :?: If you can't, we might just think that you are a completely sane person just here to have fun, and start all sorts of speculation going, in keeping with the theme of the thread. :mrgreen:
