Roland Emmerich and William Shakespeare, Together At Last

[jhiggy23]

Words cannot describe my anger over the constant discussion of Shakespeare's authorship. I was an English major who focused on duality in the work of Shakespeare's later works. The assertion that Bacon or Marlowe wrote some or most of works attributed to Shakespeare is absolutely false. It is very angersome to me. Furthermore, regardless of whether you believe this blatant falsity or not, does it REALLY matter???? All that matters are the words and stories that have lasted 400 years and have touched billions of people. To me, the authorship really is irrelevant.

That being said, it is no secret that Shakepeare bollowed storylines and characters from history. Romeo and Juliet, Troilus and Cressida, etc. are all based on pre-existing works. The difference is his language and the unique twists he gave to the stories (see: T & C).
