| | Shakespeare's sonnets are a collection of 154 poems that deal with such themes as love, beauty, politics, and mortality. | | | Shakespeare's plays tend to be placed into three main stylistic groups: his early comedies and histories (such as A Midsummer Night's Dream and Henry IV, Part 1), his middle period (which includes his most famous tragedies, Othello, Macbeth, Hamlet and King Lear), and his later romances (such as The Winter's Tale and The Tempest). | | | The tract was found in the rafters of Shakespeare's Birthplace in the eighteenth century, and was seen and described by the reputable scholar Edmund Malone. |

| | Ward Elliott and Robert Valenza / Debate with Donald Foster |
| | His new concept of “deck-stacking” seems to be that A Lover’s Complaint and FE “pass many of the original 54 tests for which Venus and Adonis, The Rape of Lucrece, and the Sonnets receive ‘not-Shakespeare’ rejections’ [as silently and misleadingly redefined by himself]. | | | Thus, five of the seven whereas equivalents are in “canonical Shakespeare”, since they appear in the Canon, but not “core Shakespeare”, since we, and most editors, doubt they are Shakespeare’s work. | | | But our counts are not the only legitimate ones either, so, unlike Foster, we don’t count his alternative versions as errors and, in one case, actually have changed our counts to include three of his when as’s and one where as in the Shakespeare Canon. |
