it took me a long while to understand the implications of sir henry neville  being the real author of shakespeare's works

for instance he wrote macbeth soon after a sojurn for two years in the tower of london for being associated with essex's attempted coup

and

he

was

lucky

not

to

be executed

macbeth is a darker more realistic work about power than his previous more manic comedies

sir henry neville's works are not stories, they are about his life and represent a fundamental paradigm shift

for instance "much ado about nothing" and "twelfth night" are strongly imbuded with italian and bohemian/adriatic coast influences, he travelled in these areas
