Apparently Amelia was not only quite beguiling musically, intellectually and physically, but also a woman unusually and passionately "liberated" for the time.<br /><br />Curious as to your take on the concept of this woman being a serious candidate for authorship... Mr. Blumenfeld and/or Farey ? IMO Mr. Hudson makes as good or better case for Bassano's authorship as can be made for anyone else, including Marlowe.thomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11125583454179217681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6942147318185235475.post-20239202491039608742008-09-02T18:01:00.000-04:002008-09-02T18:01:00.000-04:00good post; solving a mystery as timeless as the hu...good post; solving a mystery as timeless as the human race is certainly worth seven years.<BR/><BR/>i agree that secrecy is not only prevalent in the shakespeare plays, but also very effective. i think that in addition to secrecy in information, secrecy in identity is also relevant (in king lear, edgar as "poor tom," kent as caius. in hamlet, hamlet as a madman. and also maybe macbeth, with lady macbeth as the "innocent flower" with the "serpent under't.")Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
