About this listen
This extensive text presents a Baconian-Rosicrucian-Freemasonic perspective on the authorship of Shakespeare's works, arguing that Francis Bacon was the true author, using "William Shakspere" as a literary mask. The document details Bacon's concealed relationships with printers, publishers, and editors of the First Folio, including the Jaggards and Ben Jonson. It claims to reveal hidden codes, ciphers, anagrams, and acrostics within the First Folio and other contemporary texts that purportedly identify Bacon as the author and link him to Rosicrucian and Freemasonic symbolism. Furthermore, the text analyzes various Shakespearean plays and characters, interpreting them as autobiographical allusions to Bacon's life, family, and legal disputes, while also highlighting connections to his philosophical works and the secret societies he is alleged to have influenced or founded.
