Tragedies such as Macbeth, and King Lear both have to do with a monarch, which has a great estate, but eventually loses it, and dies. This may lead to a connection into Bacon's life as both these plays were written around the time Queen Elizabeth I died. They may show his uncertainties about the future of England when she died.

I believe that Sir Francis Bacon wrote the Shakespearean plays because, I do not believe William Shakspeare could have written them. I have three reasons for this.

Firstly there is a lack of historical records. Such a important figure should have more information concerning his life, especially in his time of relatively good record keeping. In addition to this I find it strange how there are no original manuscripts to his works.

Secondly Shakspeare was highly illiterate. We have no pages of writing his hand other than a few business contracts, no literary works. From the few signatures we have show that he was hardly able to write his name, let alone masterpiece plays.

Thirdly how could a boy from a small town in England possibly be able to write such pieces. There are no sources to verify he was educated at all, yet he must have had to been bilingual, widely travelled, and educated at a upper class university.

I have nothing against William Shakspeare of Stratford I just think that based upon historical facts he is not a logical cantidate.
