The Shakespeare Authorship Question

"I am 'a sort of'  haunted by the conviction that the divine William is the biggest and most successful fraud ever practiced on a patient world."                                                         - Henry James

“Charles Vere Beauclerk is an engaging, learned and engrossing speaker. On the subject of Shakespeare, they don’t come any better."

- William F. Buckley Jr.

  Shakespeare Authorship

Charles Beauclerk           In Print         

"Nell Gwyn is Charles Beauclerk's literary debut and it has about it a humanity, empathy and freshness of which his subject would undoubtedly approve... His grasp of Restoration literature and culture is impressive and there is nothing he doesn't know about the politics."

- Sunday Telegraph

Charles Beauclerk, a first class honors graduate of Oxford University, lectures and writes on 16th and 17th century history. He founded the De Vere Society in 1986 to foster debate and research on the Shakespeare authorship question, and was president of the American-based Shakespeare Oxford Society from 1995-97. He has spoken before some 250 audiences in the U.S. and Canada, including the Smithsonian Institution and the Folger Shakespeare Library. His first book Nell Gwyn: A Biography was published by Macmillan in 2005. His next book, "Shakespeare’s Identity Crisis", will be published by Grove Atlantic.

Beauclerk to sign Declaration of Reasonable Doubt following "The BIG Secret Live" in Chichester - September 8, 2007.

Declaration of Reasonable Doubt -- Sponsored by the Shakespeare Authorship Coalition, the Declaration directly challenges the claim of orthodox Shakespeare scholars that there is "no room for doubt" about the traditional attribution of the works.  It provides a concise, definitive explanation of the reasons to doubt the case for the Stratford man, and advocates that the authorship issue should be regarded as legitimate in academia. Doubters can read and sign the Declaration online, as with an online petition
