News & Events index WHY ANOTHER BOOK ON OXFORD’S LIFE ? The Earl of Oxford and the Making of “Shakespeare”: The Literary Life of Edward De Vere in Context Published: December 23 2011 The answer to the question above is in the secondary title – quite a few books of biography and some with literary evidence have been written about the Earl of Oxford as Shakespeare, but there is a gap – one that I hope will be filled by this title, which focuses entirely on the role of Oxford in England’s literary Renaissance. Book Review Shakespeare’s Lost Kingdom:
In the light of the current controversy about the emergence of the Prince Tudor theory in the upcoming film, 'Anonymous', the DVS considers it very timely that the noted American Oxfordian researcher, Christopher Paul, has added to his accomplished essay on this topic, THE "PRINCE TUDOR" DILEMMA: Hip Thesis, Hypothesis, or Old Wives’ Tale? for The Oxfordian Volume V 2002, with a review of Charles Beaclerk's recent book. This review first appeared in Brief Chronicles Vol. 2 (2011), Print Edition, pp. 244-57 and the DVS is delighted that Christopher Paul has asked us to republish it as a pdf in its original form.

'Anonymous' film release A major cinema release about Edward De Vere, Earl of Oxford as the true author of the plays of William Shakespeare will certainly raise the profile of the Authorship Question. Dating Shakespeare’s Plays: A Critical Review of the Evidence This critical review of the evidence challenges the orthodox scholarly consensus about the order in which Shakespeare composed his plays and when they were written. It reveals surprising discrepancies in date comparisions. Evidence is reviewed methodically to produce a range of dates, supported by in-depth analysis of aids to dating such as language, historical allusion the testimony of title pages, as well as works by other authors including Palladis Tamia and the Stationers’ Register.
