Very very interesting. Thank you for posting.

I'm getting more and more interested in Anthony Bacon

Who wouldn't want to read the lost 'Isle of Dogs'?

We must never lose sight those Marlowe’s + De Vere’s + Bacon’s times also matched, mostly in Italy and France, with the paramount of ‘’Mannerism’’ - an artistic era characterized by a special taste for secrecy, maze, enigma, and false pretense… In short, the straight line was definitely not their favorite. Hence the significance of the authorship question?!?

Glad this found me since it appears, inexplicably, that I am no longer getting notifications for SAT. Has someone changed the password or is this a personal conspiracy? Many thanks and ‘lols’ 😉

Dr. Barber seems to imply, but does not make it explicit, that Thomas Drury disappearance may have been because he might have information that would undermine the Marlowe Death Plot.

I smell some Bacon connecting Marlowe and Shakespeare......hmmmmm

It's interesting that Marlowe wrote a book against the Trinity, which as a surface reading supposes that he is against religion. But if you watch the Alexander Waugh videos, you'll know that one of the "functions" of the Trinity as expressed in the Triple Tau has to do with secrecy, just as in spy craft. The hidden messages, the gematria, the finding of the number in your name and so on. Marlowe's treatise of atheism was therefore not just an exercise in rhetoric, but a rejection of the philosophical underpinnings of Elizabethan state control, which naturally was seen by his contemporaries in government as deliberate, and Marlowe as dangerous and subversive, in an era where the choice of religion was everything.
