Overview

William Shakespeare is the most famous author in the English language. Or is he? Some scholars believe plays such as Romeo and Juliet or Hamlet could not have been written by an uneducated common person like Shakespeare. In fact, for someone so talented, we know very little about his life. Is it possible that someone else wrote the famous plays. Or that there was a group of authors conspiring to hide their identities? Read the facts and the theories, then decide for yourself.
