Excerpt from The Connection of Francis Bacon With the First Folio of Shakespeare's Plays and With the Books on Cipher of His Time
Now, however absurd we may think the theory of the Baco nians in itself, it groups together and calls attention to a class of facts of a very curious nature in the life of Shakespeare, and especially in the life of Bacon, of which no explanation whatever is to be found in their accepted biographies; and the fault, or the folly, of the orthodox Shakespearians is this - that their antipathy to the Baconian theory completely blinds their eyes, if not to the existence of the class of facts in question, at any rate to the possi bility of their possessing any meaning at all; whereas, if it were not for the influence of an unreasoning prejudice, they would certainly bring them into prominence, and devote themselves to the task of elucidating them. The utmost in the way of theory, on which I shall personally venture, is this: That the facts indicate, not that Bacon was the real Shakespeare, but that he had certain connections, of one sort or another, with the literature and literati of his time, which he never publicly ac knowledged, and which have thus far never been recognized. This is a position which can hardly be offensive to even the most peppery Shakespearian; and should subsequent study of the matter show that this position is not warranted I should abandon it Without regret.
