Excerpt from The Life and Works of Arthur Hall of Grantham: Member of Parliament, Courtier and First Translator of Homer Into English The appearance of this book, begun in 1912, has been delayed by the many vicissitudes it has undergone. For upwards of a year the MS. lay at the American Embassy in Berlin, and even when it had reached the author again, the upheavals of the war were not conducive to its completion. It aims at giving a thorough account of one whose literary abilities and achievements were small, but who by his manysidedness brings us into contact with various aspects of the Elizabethan age, and therefore repays study. The idea of such a study of Arthur Hall was first suggested to me by Professor O. L. Jiriczek, to whom I am greatly indebted, not only for this, but for many other kindnesses shown to me during the four years we were colleagues. From my friend Mr. L. L. Mackall I have received valuable assistance in matters bibliographical, whilst Dr. Ernest Classen has put me under an obligation by collating quotations from various rare works at the British Museum. To Mr. A. E. Prince for his help in deciphering certain of Hall's letters, when my work was in its early stages, I would also express my thanks. Miss Greta Linder and Miss B. Smythe rendered me great service by copying the translations of Hall and Salel at a time when these were inaccessible to me. I would also mention my indebtedness to Canon Carr Smith and Colonel Alfred Welby for information concerning the Hall family, as also to Mr. W. A. White for details of his copy of Hall's "Homer." My cordial acknowledgments are also due to Professor T. F. Tout for invaluable suggestions and much kind encouragement.

This volume continues the publication of Professor Elton's collected papers on topics in the history of Tudor and Stuart England. All appeared between 1973 and 1981. As before, they are reprinted exactly as originally published, with corrections and additions in footnotes. They include the author's four presidential addresses to the Royal Historical Society and bring together his preliminary findings in the history of Parliament and its records. Several of them, which appeared in various collections and Festschriften, have been difficult to find, and some are taken from locations in Germany and the United States unfamiliar to English readers. The eight lengthy reviews here republished examine some of the major questions in the history of the age and throw light on the principles of investigation which underlie the author's own research.

Few are aware that the actual identity of William Shakespeare, a pen name, represents our greatest cultural mystery. Even fewer realize that Will Shakspere of Stratford-on-Avon was an uneducated businessman who never owned a book, knew no foreign languages, never traveled and never wrote a word of poetry or prose. Shakspere was a front for a complete fraud perpetrated by England's leading politician, Robert Cecil, for reasons of power and greed. The astonishing strength of Conventional Wisdom has kept the ruse going for 400 years, perpetrated by professors of English who, blinded by traditional dogma, refuse to accept the remarkable and growing body of evidence in favor of Edward de Vere. Volume 8 of the Anthology Series, Building the Case for Edward de Vere As Shakespeare, documents the quickening pace of Oxfordian discoveries in the late 1990s and early 2000s. These present massive problems for professors of English to combat in a convincing manner. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, 1991: "For present purposes, I shall confine my analysis to the Sherlock Holmes principle that sometimes the fact that a watchdog did not bark may provide a significant clue about the identity of a murderous intruder. "This concern directs our attention to three items of [the Shakespeare authorship controversy]. First, it is of interest that there is no mention of any library, or of any books at all, in his will, and no evidence that his house in Stratford ever contained a library. "Second, his son-in-law's detailed medical journals . . . contain no mention of the doctor's illustrious father-in-law. "Finally is the fact that is most puzzling to me--the seven-year period of silence that followed Shakespeare's [Shakspere's] death in 1616. Until the First Folio was published in 1623, there seems to have been no public comment in any part of England on the passing of the greatest literary genius in the country's history. "It does seem odd that not even a cocker spaniel or a dachshund made any noise at all when he passed from the scene."

Originally published in 1958, this new impression of The Queen’s Wards from 1973 made available once more a work that remains a significant contribution to the history of society and government in Elizabethan England. The Court of Wards was a bizarre institution with roots going back to feudal mediaeval times. Revived by Henry VII, formally instituted by Henry VIII, the concept of wardship reached its zenith in Elizabethan times, when it was used as a powerful weapon in the raising of revenues and in controlling the aristocracy. The Court administered on behalf of the Crown the properties of fatherless minors (of whom there were many), bought and sold the rights to exploit these properties during the minority of the heirs, and even sold the heirs themselves into marriage (or withheld permission to marry). This control of marriage rights was clearly open to abuse, corruption and political exploitation, and as a symptom of Elizabethan times the Court provides an interesting and illuminating subject for study. The system had a special significance in government policy and played a considerable role in the politics of the age: this is attested to by the fact that for nearly half a century the history of the Court of Wards is dominated by William Cecil (Lord Burghley) and his son Robert. Many other prominent courtiers and politicians were involved, and figure in this book.
