Bacon is Shake-Speare Together with a Reprint of Bacon's Promus of Formularies and Elegancies

This slim volume makes a bold case for re‑examining the authorship of the most celebrated English dramas. By tracing the astonishing breadth of legal, classical, and courtly knowledge woven through the verses, the author suggests that only a mind as learned and seasoned in public affairs as Francis Bacon could have produced them. The argument is presented with a balance of scholarly citation and spirited commentary, inviting listeners to follow the trail of clues without demanding prior expertise.

The book also includes a carefully collated reprint of Bacon’s own “Promus of Formularies and Elegancies,” a notebook of ready‑made phrases and rhetorical tricks. As the narrator reads side‑by‑side excerpts, you’ll hear how many of those turn‑of‑phrase appear later in the plays, offering a tangible illustration of the proposed connection. Whether you’re a curious newcomer to the authorship debate or a seasoned literary detective, the work provides a thoughtful, engaging listening experience that encourages you to look at the texts with fresh eyes.
