  Irvin Leigh Matus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Matus advanced this position in the October 1991 issue of The Atlantic Monthly entitled The Case for Shakespeare.
In the same issue, Tom Bethell wrote The Case for Oxford, in which he argued that Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford, was the actual author Shakespeare's plays.
This view is called Oxfordianism, and is currently the most popular alternate theory of the authorship of Shakespeare's works.

 Shakespeare, in Fact   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Irvin Leigh Matus should be commended for his industry.
Matus gives not just fair, but even patient, hearing; and in many instances where a less forbearing respondent might give a short answer, he explores and explains in further detail.
Matus gives the short answer -- consult Bullough's standard work on the sources for the parallels to William Strachey's 1610 letter on behalf of the Virginia Company -- but he also resurrects the history of the ship.

 shakespeare in fact
Matus says the central question of the authorship controversy is how Shakespeare stood in relation to his contemporaries.
With this as his guiding premise, Matus tears apart the arguments of groups who challenge the authorship of the plays, particularly the arguments by those who charge that Shakespeare was the pen name of the Earl of Oxford.
Drawing from historical documents and literary references, Matus concludes that there is no evidence that can disprove the authorship of the plays by the player himself nor offers evidence that can prove another is more likely to be the author.

 Amazon.fr : Chroniques et points de vue Livres en anglais: Shakespeare, in Fact   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Matus (Shakespeare: The Living Record) soundly thrashes the Oxfordians, puncturing holes in their theory that de Vere wrote the plays.
Matus demonstrates that Shakespeare's contemporaries gave little indication that they thought of the Bard as the greatest playwright of his age; only during the 18th-century, when editors corrected real or perceived flaws in the works, did his reputation soar, the author maintains.
Both Matus and Ogburn deploy a welter of references to the playwright and to the Elizabethan stage; but what they refer to is fragmentary evidence, and missing parts must be inferred.

 A Historic Whodunit: If Shakespeare Didn't, Who Did?
Still, most of the academic establishment remains on the Stratford side, and its position is supported by a formidable cadre of anti-Oxfordians, including Irvin Leigh Matus, an independent scholar and author of "Shakespeare, in Fact" (1994); Prof.
Stratfordians say that Shakespeare became an actor and that the name William Shakespeare on the title pages of the original editions of the plays, sonnets and long poems proves that their man is the author.
Matus argues that the playwright used "Shakspere" in the country and "Shakespeare" in the city.

 Staten Island Rapid Transit by Irvin Leigh & Paul Matus - Page 2
Paul had a fondness for riding the SIRT and the Staten Island buses in those days before the Verrazano - Narrows Bridge gave New York City's rural island its first "dry" travel link to the rest of the city, and the idea for the SIRT book was born.
In that year, brothers Irvin Leigh and Paul Matus, partners in the Silver Leaf Rapid Transit Models company, were thinking about the increasing popularity of the booklets and articles they were writing as an adjunct to their hobby goods import business.
Silver Leaf and the brothers' writing were already heavily identified with the BMT so they decided that it would be a good idea to branch out to something a little different for their next work.

 Shakespeare Authorship
Irvin Leigh Matus's Shakespeare, In Fact (Continuum, 1994) is a good book-length examination of the authorship question, containing thorough demolitions of many Oxfordian claims.
In this essay, excerpted from a talk delivered at the Library of Congress, Irvin Matus, the author of Shakespeare IN FACT, discusses the common Oxfordian claim that Hamlet is actually a thinly veiled autobiography of Edward de Vere.
Matus points out the weaknesses of the Oxfordian case, and also argues that the Oxfordian approach to the play seeks to diminish its power as a work of art, reducing a profound exploration of the deepest issues that concern us as people to a petty expression of pique.

As Irvin Matus says, the arid Stratfordian records are "hardly a match for.
As Matus has pointed out, only the accepted chronology of the later plays can explain their Jacobean flavour, vastly different from the optimistic humanism of the 1590s; and in some cases, especially The Winter's Tale, there is virtually conclusive evidence that they were written after 1604.

 Oxenford Reader
Irvin Matus, an independent researcher, is fast emerging as Shakespearean orthodoxy's answer to the populist groundswell of curiosity about the Oxford theory.
The Queen, it appears, may have been a member of the imaginative conspiracy, and for reasons of her own may have decided to patronize a gifted dramatist, who agreed to remain anonymous, while he loyally rewrote much of the early history of Great Britain.
We take exception to some of Matus' outrageous statements, for example, that de Vere was not a man of the theater.

 willyshakes.com --The Making of a Confirmed Shakespearean, by Irvin Leigh Matus
Since Matus made a big deal of the word ‘Players’ appearing beside the names of the nine actors, let us consider why the bookkeeper of the Wardrobe found it necessary to identify the actors by their trade, that, as “Players.” Weren’t these men so well known in 1604 that identification as “Players” would be superfluous?
Roper, “Matus, In Fact?” in a publication of the British De Vere Society, takes off on one of the Draculas of Oxfordian orthodoxy: the alleged transformation of the Shakespeare monument in Holy Trinity Church in Stratford.
Indeed it seems nothing can kill it, “it” being the engraving in William Dugdale’s Antiquities of Warwickshire, published in 1656, which depicts the half-length figure of Shakespeare in the monument which Oxfordians are convinced is exactly the way it looked until a substitute was made in 1748, which is the one familiar to us.
