		The praise which Schlegel gives to Thomas, Lord Cromwell and to Sir John Oldcastle is altogether exaggerated.

	The Chronicle and History Play
		Sir Thomas More and The Life and Death of Thomas Lord Cromwell are examples of plays built upon the biography of national statesmen.

		Sir Thomas Stukeley was one of these adventurers, and his actual career would make almost any melodrama seem pale.

		Thomas S. Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962) might as well be titled The Structure of Shakespearean Revolutions for the author's sagacity in illuminating the history of the authorship controversy.
		Now 76 years since J. Thomas Looney's Shakespeare Identified first came into print, the revolution it set in motion --and the entrenched orthodoxy's reaction to it-- share many identifying traits with other intellectual revolutions in history (or what Kuhn terms "paradigm shifts").
		Kuhn's consideration of orthodox reactions to John Dalton's atomic theory of chemistry or Nicolaus Copernicus' heliocentric cosmology shows haunting relevance to the authorship debate and its reverberations in Shakespearean research today.
