Bacon Cryptograms in Shake-Speare and Other Studies by Isaac Hull Platt is a book that explores the theory that Francis Bacon, rather than William Shakespeare, was the true author of the plays and sonnets attributed to Shakespeare. Platt presents evidence in the form of cryptograms, or hidden messages, found within the texts of the plays and sonnets that he believes point to Bacon as the true author. The book also includes other studies related to the Shakespeare authorship debate, such as an analysis of the language and style used in the plays and sonnets. Platt argues that Bacon's extensive knowledge and experience in law, science, and philosophy make him a more likely candidate for the authorship of these works than Shakespeare, who had limited formal education. The book is a fascinating exploration of a controversial topic that has captivated scholars and Shakespeare enthusiasts for centuries.1905.
