Sources, Parallelism, And Problems with the Thomas North Attributions
- Synopsis
- Video Recording of a live online lecture by Dr. Ros Barber (Goldsmiths College, University of London) on whether North did in fact write much of the material used by Shakespeare in his work. She discusses her use of data mining opportunities offered by EEBO (Early English books Online). She concludes that Shakespeare may have been a plunderer rather than a plagiarist. Followed by a Q&A hosted by William Leahy.
