she speaks clearer than the other prof
I feel really privilleged to have access to this. Thank you to everyone involved.
This is a fantastic lecture actually. I want all the books she is referencing!
Inexhaustible wealth of meaning comprised in fourteen lines. A most stimulating lecture.
Thank you ✨
Thank you for this upload:)
Great lecture!
Professor, my dearest salutations. About such a theme so trespassed by "ambiguity" on prosopopeia. I very much liked 60-63-73. Thank you
Really I have had some uneasiness, clepsidra of the due homage to the sonnets...(we have Camões and other sonnet masters, but not,(nor) of the same metric nor iambic.
The Sonnets are of Edward de Vere's love of his son Henry Wriothesley whose mother was Elizabeth I, urging his son to produce an heir hence the urgence of time passing.
Hahaha, and I am Marie of Romania.
@@frankfeldman6657 Educate yourself first before your dismiss, check out Alexander Waugh on utube who explains with facts.
Never Before Imprinted. = Be In Print For M. E de Vere (perfect anagram, even used the period)
Alexandre Waugh who holds Hank Whittemore in high esteem, watch his video on the Sonnets 'Shake-speare's TREASON'. Can't fault it.
@@mariadange06 I was in the audience when Whittemore made his video, so yeah I've seen it. Streitz and Beauclerk have written heavily researched and very convincing books on the Prince Tudor Theory.
Waugh is definitely NOT sympathetic to the Prince Tudor Theory. I get the sense that he and the De Vere society want the theory to disappear. He holds that an impotent de Vere prevailed on Henry Wriothesley to have a child with Penelope Rich, and that child became Henry de Vere, the 18th Earl. Waugh doesn't say why Wriothesley would be chosen to do this. Waugh never says that maybe it could be because Wriothesley was already de Vere's son, and he certainly never implicates the Queen. An ability to read between the lines might be necessary.
She's low energy but hang in there;
but I prefer, say, Paul Cantor.
No. The first 126 are not addressed to a young man. This is very often stated, but if you actually read them, this is completely untrue.
