Authorship of Shakespeare's Plays A Socio-Linguistic Study

This book introduces a method for determining the authorship of Renaissance plays by examining the rapid rate of change in English grammar in the late sixteenth- and early-seventeenth centuries. The present study focuses on Shakespeare: his collaborations with Fletcher and Middleton; and the apocryphal plays. Among the plays examined are Henry VIII, The Two Noble Kinsmen, Macbeth, Pericles and Sir Thomas More.Hope, Jonathan is the author of 'Authorship of Shakespeare's Plays A Socio-Linguistic Study', published 2007 under ISBN 9780521033862 and ISBN 0521033861.
