    1,452 comments Add a comment Tom Regnier · Follow · President at Shakespeare Oxford Fellowship In order to believe that the Stratford man was Shakespeare, it is necessary to suppose that the son of illiterate parents, for whom there is no evidence that he ever went to school, ever wrote a letter, or ever owned a book, somehow attained a world-class education that included fluency in several languages, a deep understanding of law, medicine, classical mythology, aristocratic sports, science, philosophy, Greek drama, heraldry, the military, and Italy, among other subjects, thereby becoming one of the most literate people of the Elizabethan Age, and gained all this knowledge without leaving a clue as to how he did it. Yes, the author of the plays had native genius, but he also had tremendous book learning. I have taught a law school course on Shakespeare's knowledge of the law. There wouldn't be enough material to do that with any other Elizabethan playwright.
