					<description><![CDATA[October 14, 2020 My first real exposure to the Shakespeare authorship question came some time in the 1980s. While I was aware that some &#8220;oddballs&#8221; questioned the authorship, it was then that I read a piece in the Outlook section of the Washington Post by David Ignatius. &#8220;What? That&#8217;s ALL they know about this Stratford [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[September 24, 2020 After experiencing some of &#8220;Shakespeare&#8217;s Greatest Hits&#8221; throughout high school, I was eager to take every Shakespeare course that college had to offer. While working toward my B.A. in English in the early 1990s, I signed up for the available Shakespeare classes as well as an independent study of the history plays [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[September 10, 2020 It is not so much my love of Shakespeare, but more my love of history, particularly the medieval history of Britain, which led to my interest in the authorship question. I wouldn&#8217;t have described myself as a Stratfordian — I was just unaware that there was any question about Shakespeare. I suppose [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[August 27, 2020 I have always enjoyed seeing performances of Shakespeare’s plays and wish I could find excuses to use more of his beautiful phrases. I hadn’t given much thought to the authorship question though I had a few episodes of uncertainty. On my early “pilgrimage” to Stratford I had a visceral reaction to that [&#8230;]]]></description>
