Durning-Lawrence, Edwin The Shakespeare Myth
London Gay & Hancock 1912 Paperback Very Good- None Issued
32 pp; stapled self-wrapper; rubbing wear to spine; slight browning to wrapper; owner's name on front cover; internally clean, bright and sound. Edwin Durning-Lawrence (1837-1914) served as a member of parliament from 1894 to 1907. He was also the author of Bacon is Shake-speare, Milton's epitaph to Shakespear. Macbeth proves Bacon is Shakespeare, and The Bacon Craze. Durning-Lawrence made much of cryptograms and especially of the word 'honorificabilitudinitatibus' in Love's Labour's Lost, which he turned into the anagram: 'Hi ludi F. Baconis nati tuiti orbis' ('These plays, F. Bacon's offspring, are preserved for the world'). The collection of books that Durning-Lawrence acquired is housed in the Senate House Library at the University of London. It contains approximately 5,750 volumes, and is rich in early editions of works connected with Sir Francis Bacon.
