Cracking the Shakespeare Code: The Seven Steps to Mercy - Part 1 | History Documentary
Watch 'Cracking the Shakespeare Part - Part 2' here: • Cracking the Shakespea...
This is the amazing story of Petter Amundsen, a Norwegian organist, who believes he has deciphered a secret code hidden in Shakespeare’s first folio. The code reveals a treasure map where mythical objects are hidden. We follow Amundsen and Dr. Robert Crumpton, a sceptical historian, on their quest to discover the truth. This first episode examines the codes to be found in Shakespeare’s plays and questions who really wrote them.
In this three part series, we learn how the map functions and about the codes often hidden in Renaissance art. We discover who might have wanted to hide the treasure and how they did it and journey across the world to a tiny island in Nova Scotia in search of the treasure.

William Shakespeare the actor was the son of illiterate parents and his children were also illiterate. There are only about six records of William Shakespeare's own handwriting, all his signatures which are terrible & it appears that he only learned to write his name. There is no record of William Shakespeare actually owning any books. It is probable that William Shakespeare the actor was also illiterate himself and could not possibly be the author of the works in his name.

@Jeffhowardmeade 11 месяцев назад

Not a single thing you wrote is true, except the part about the books. We have no records of anything he owned besides the sword he left his friend and the bed he left his wife. His older daughter was definitely literate and his father was the town mayor and a justice of the peace. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. And his signatures (as well as three pages of a play in his handwriting which you forgot to mention) all look just fine if you can read 16th Century handwriting.

@johnsmith-eh3yc 7 месяцев назад

His daughter signed her name Susanna Hall in a neat secretary hand on two occasions years apart but in a similar way. Nothing like a barefaced lie to show conspiracy theorists for what they are. Also his brother Gilbert signed his name neatly as Gilbert Shakespere.

I subscribe to the fundamentals of the Shakespeare Authorship Question - but these supposed “code breakers” can make anything translate to anything by converting from one code to another code to another number until they eventually find what they want to. Alexander Waugh has applied just as “logical”/“absurd” codes to the same texts show that it was actually Edward de Vere as the secret message

I wouldn't look at what is possible. Possibilities are endless. You have to get a feel for what precisely the man himself would think. A person's brain does a thing. It leads you places. Yours, mine, and Shakespeare. He had to learn everything piece by piece. He would repeat processes learned as time unfolds. You should not study Shakespeare as a static human being, but rather as an evolving human being. His codes should have improved over time. Maybe I'll spend some time on this myself.

@inamorata966 7 месяцев назад

If I was an English person, I'd defend against this surmise with every fiber of my being. As an American who loves Shakespeare's works, I can only say that nothing positive can come from Mr. Amundsen's efforts. If false, he is a hack trying to rile up people enough to sell a few books. If true? A cause for sorrow. I wouldn't want to hear the like of a Lessing or a Faulkner was a fraud, and that their great works were done by someone else.

I don't think you're getting the part where Crumpton is not a Shakespeare PhD, and what he is saying is not true. If he were, he would know that Isaac Jaggard's print shop was using type cast in France, where the language has no W. Hence he used two Vs to make uppercase Ws and ran out of those, hence his use of lowercase Vs to make the rest of the Ws in the poem opposite the engraving of Shakespeare. He would not make the claim that printers circa 1623 rarely made typographical errors, when in fact they would make corrections mid print run, but would still use the misprints, which were too valuable to toss. Books printed in the early 17th Century are typically RIDDLED with errors, and were typeset by teams of compositors who often spelled words different ways. This whole program is faked, right down to Crumpton getting on his flight at Gate 53.
