Save the date. Sunday 17th November 2024. We have an amazing conference day in London planned including sections of Shakespeare’s Venus and Adonis and Rape of Lucrèce read in person by Sir Mark Rylance.

We're excited about our London conference in three weeks' time, starring Oscar and BAFTA-winning actor Sir Mark Rylance. Are you?

Questions over Shakespeare’s authorship began in his lifetime, scholar claims https://t.co/k9bq7xoqok

[Shaky At besT @ShakeAuthTrust]

@_Nullifidian_ You calling Francis Bacon and Christopher Marlowe ‘Scribbling amateurs’? 😆 You’re not someone whose opinion is worth taking seriously.

[Shaky At besT @ShakeAuthTrust]

@_Nullifidian_ @aq_anon76486 @OliverKamm 🤣

[Shaky At besT @ShakeAuthTrust]

Trust the Mail to get it completely wrong, just like Kamm.

Who has time to read and understand BOOKS these days?

[Elizabeth Winkler @ElizWinkler]

Important chapter in Teaching and Learning Practices for Academic Freedom on the authorship question as “a significant but under-examined example of a threat to academic freedom originating from within the academy”

@_Nullifidian_ @OliverKamm @aq_anon76486 You can’t have it both ways. The presence of peer-reviewed SAQ articles disproves your original point. “Sneaking”. 😂

[Shaky At besT @ShakeAuthTrust]

@_Nullifidian_ @aq_anon76486 It would be hilarious to see someone as ignorant about the authorship question to try and get involved in the discussion, but it's clear @Oliverkamm isn't qualified to do offer anything other than ad hominems and false equivalences.

[Shaky At besT @ShakeAuthTrust]

@OliverKamm @_Nullifidian_ @aq_anon76486 You are a very out-of-date on this issue, journalist. Take your claim of 'anti-intellectualism' to OUP, Berghahn, Taylor & Francis etc. The authorship question is getting peer-reviewed publications. This is just a sample.

[Shaky At besT @ShakeAuthTrust]

@_Nullifidian_ You are *so* far behind the curve if you think Eliot and Valenza's work from the 1990s stands up to scrutiny. I speak as someone who has published in Digital Scholar in the Humanities in the last 3 years, peer review articles for them, and was invited to join the editorial board

[Shaky At besT @ShakeAuthTrust]

@RTHG82 Well the row is true, because Kamm made it so, but this is not what the book he is so cross about is claiming.

[Shaky At besT @ShakeAuthTrust]

Oliver Kamm’s tantrum about - checks notes - *a book discussion in a library* is making the news. He complains about anti-intellectualism while complaining about a set text on a Harvard history course.

@aq_anon76486 He’s frightened of a book.

@WillMonox2112 Yes, and this is one case where you CAN judge a book by its cover.
