Bacon Cryptograms In Shakespeare: And Other Studies is a book written by Isaac Hull Platt and first published in 1905. The book focuses on the theory that Francis Bacon, rather than William Shakespeare, was the true author of the Shakespearean plays. Platt argues that Bacon encoded secret messages within the text of the plays, known as cryptograms, that reveal his true authorship. The book also includes other studies related to the Shakespearean authorship debate, including an analysis of the handwriting of both Bacon and Shakespeare. Platt's work was part of a larger movement at the time to challenge the traditional attribution of the Shakespearean plays to William Shakespeare and to explore alternative theories of authorship. The book is of interest to scholars of Shakespearean studies and those interested in the history of literary criticism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
