Geir Uthaug is a Norwegian writer, poet, translator and critic. He has been interested throughout his career in 19th Century Romantic poets such as Byron, Shelley and Blake and has published more than 50 translations. He is a columnist for the Aftenposten. He has also been interested in the plays attributed to Shakespeare and several years ago began his own inquiry. His purpose, he said, was to tell the story of the authorship doubters, which he thought was a story worth telling to Norwegians. His book is called The Battle for Shakespeare’s Identity – The World’s Greatest Literary Riddle. He has lectured around the world on literature and creativity.
