Alan Stott – UK
Zusammenfassung:
Das neue Jahrhundert kann bereits auf einige herausragende und kontroverse Ergebnisse der Shakespeare-Forschung zurückblicken, deren Anerkennung noch aussteht. Diese neueren Entdeckungen und Schlussfolgerungen fordern dazu auf, sowohl die Frage nach dem Verfasser des Shakespeare’schen Werkkanons, als auch diejenige nach der Quelle seiner Inspiration neu zu stellen. Dieser Aufsatz fasst die neuesten Forschungen (Anderson, Stritmatter, Whittemore, Beauclerk) zusammen, diskutiert die Auffassung von Dichtern und schöpferisch tätigen Autoren, die auch als Literaturkritiker immer noch Dichter bleiben (Blake, Keats, James Joyce, Charles Williams, Ted Hughes), und greift zwei Einsichten Rudolf Steiners bezüglich der Figur des Hamlet und der Rolle König James I auf.

Alan Stott – Stourbridge, U.K.
Abstract:
The new century has seen some outstanding controversial research in Shakespearean studies. These current discoveries and inferences now invite a reconsideration of both authorship and inspiration. This paper summarises the latest research (Anderson, Stritmatter, Whittemore, Beauclerk), discusses the perceptions of poets and creative writers, who do not cease to be poets when writing criticism (Blake, Keats, James Joyce, Charles Williams, Ted Hughes) and follows up two insights of Rudolf Steiner on the authorship question concerning the figure of Hamlet and the role of James I.

The seven-sentence rhythm of love in R. Steiner’s “The Philosophy of Freedom”. Actually, it is there in all his basic written work, and there are no doubt several other rhythms. These observations of the author’s exact artistic technique, to me suggest further research into evidence from other scientific and artistic disciplines. > Download PDF: The [...]

Welcome to Alan’s notes. This is my first post. More, much more to come… collected works of the last 10 years: music, eurythmy; “Shakespeare — Who held the pen?” is the latest attempt. I think like minds should link up. So I also want to make available some gems from my pile of hard-to-find books [...]
