Shakespeare Sonnets and Edward de Vere & Personal Clues in Shakespeare Poems and Sonnets
"Shakespeare's sonnets present the soul of Hamlet shaped by the experiences of Edward de Vere."So observes Gerald H. Rendall, the most eminent British scholar and educator to conclude that de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford, wrote the works known as "Shakespeare's." In the two books included in this volume - Shakespeare Sonnets and Edward de Vere (1930) and Personal Clues in Shakespeare Poems and Sonnets (1934) - Rendall recounts how his study of the sonnets revealed "coincidences so numerous, so circumstantial, so surprising and illuminating, that it became impossible to set them down to chance or to refuse to recognise in them the handwork of Edward de Vere."Readers new to this idea will surely appreciate Rendall's own difficulty in overcoming his existing belief in William Shakspere's authorship, and recognize the truth of his observation that "In criticism, as in science, history or philosophy, one has to put up with facts; and so long as no alternative seems open, one must either shut one's eyes, or accept seeming impossibilities."
