Talking Weird #64 Shakespeare Revelations with Katherine Chiljan & Mark Eddy

Katherine Chiljan is an independent scholar who has studied the Shakespeare authorship question for over 28 years.<br />(https://shakespearesuppressed.com/ )<br /><br />A graduate of U.C.L.A. (B.A. History), Chiljan became interested in the controversy when Charlton Ogburn, author of The Mysterious William Shakespeare (1984), appeared in a TV debate with a Shakespeare professor. She then started doing her own research, eventually publishing two anthologies about the 17th Earl of Oxford, and acting as editor of the Shakespeare-Oxford Newsletter.<br /><br />In 2003, she debated English professors on the topic at the Smithsonian Institution. Chiljan was inspired to write SHAKESPEARE SUPPRESSED: THE UNCENSORED TRUTH ABOUT SHAKESPEARE AND HIS WORKS (2011) after hearing a prominent English professor insult doubters of the traditional Shakespeare on national television. The book took almost 7 years to complete and earned her an award for distinguished scholarship from Concordia University, Portland, OR, in April 2012.<br /><br />Mark Eddy works with Barbara DeLong on the "Night-Light Network" delving into eclectic topics and ancient mysteries.<br /><br />Katherine and Mark visit with Dean on Talking Weird to chat about the Shakespeare authorship controversy. They will examine a wide range of clues and facts which suggest that the true author of the world's most famous plays was not the traditionally accredited "Bard of Avon".<br /><br />Get ready for a fascinating examination of one of the most compelling and long lasting mysteries of the literary world: Who was the "real" Shakespeare?<br /><br />This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/show/4602609/advertisement">https://www.spreaker.com/show/4602609/advertisement</a>
