Anna Faktorovich (anaphoraliterary) | 13 comments Dear GoodReads Reviewers: I hope you will be interested in reviewing or purchasing on Amazon one or more of the volumes of my history-changing, newly-released “British Renaissance Re-Attribution and Modernization Series”: https://anaphoraliterary.com/attribution. This site includes the full description of the volumes and articles I wrote or others wrote about this series in the Wichita Falls Times Record News, Vernon Daily Record, Quanah Tribune-Chief and Armed with a Book blog. “Volumes 1-2: The Re-Attribution of the British Renaissance Corpus” (979-8-49958-765-2) describe the computational-linguistic authorial-attribution method I invented to re-attributed 284 texts (the largest corpus of texts ever tested) from the British Renaissance, together with other types of proof to support these re-assignments to a Workshop of only six ghostwriters: Benjamin Jonson, Richard Verstegan, Josuah Sylvester, Gabriel Harvey, William Byrd and William Percy. Volumes 3-14 present William Percy’s (the main tragedian ghostwriter behind the “William Shakespeare” pseudonym) never-before translated dramas, poetry and historical sources with annotations, introductions, staging diagrams, handwritten manuscripts and other visuals, and discussion questions designed for adoption of these books into college classes. Each volume includes extensive introductions that explain the establishment of the theater enterprise in Britain that is entirely different from the traditional narrative propagated in history books. Volumes 3-8 are uncontested creations of William Percy, none of which have ever been translated into Modern English before. “Sonnets to the Fairest Coelia: Volume 3” (1594; 979-8-49959-524-4) is the only actual collection of sonnets written by William (Shakespeare) Percy. “The Cuck-Queans’ and Cuckolds’ Errands: Volume 4” (1601; 979-8-49959-947-1): An anti-warfare, anti-marriage, and pro-free-love closeted satire. “The Thirsty Arabia: Volume 5” (1601; 979-8-75007-065-7): A closeted first attempt to present the complexities and elegance of the Islamic faith and the prophet Muhammad on the English stage. “The Aphrodisia: Volume 6” (1602; 979-8-75007-396-2): A rare marinal about disguised identities and loves among the Greco-Roman deities under the Mediterranean Sea. “A Forest Tragedy in the Vacuum: Or, Cupid’s Sacrifice: Volume 7” (1602; 979-8-75007-754-0): A farcical satire about the Laws of Tragedy and irrational morality that presents a Vacuum of death. “The Fairy Pastoral: Volume 8” (1603; 979-8-75008-614-6): A pastoral satire about homicidal women- and men-haters being forced into marriage. Volumes 9-14 are either anonymous or pseudonymously-credited texts that my study re-attributes to Percy. “Fedele and Fortunio, the Two Italian Gentlemen: Volume 9” (1585; 979-8-75009-111-9): An adaptation of an Italian anti-comedy into an English formulaic-comedy. “Three Lords and Three Ladies of London: Volume 10” (1590; 979-8-75009-442-4): An allegorical morality comedy about criminality and the rivalries between London, Lincoln and Spain. “Look Around You: Volume 11” (1600; 979-8-75009-705-0): The neglected actual first part of the Robin Hood series. “Hamlet: The First Quarto: Volume 12” (979-8-75011-325-5): The censored satirical or “bad” version of the “Shakespeare” classic that features a homosexual affair between Hamlet and Horatio, and Ofelia’s deflowering to feign heterosexual normalcy. “Nobody and Somebody: Volume 13” (1606; 979-8-75011-664-5): A comedy that juxtaposes fame with anonymity, and tyrannical abuse with fair governance. “Captain Underwit: Volume 14” (1649; 979-8-75012-043-7): A country comedy about the absurdly corrupt purchases of military titles. I have a PhD, occasionally work as an English professor, and have been directing my independent Anaphora Literary Press since 2009; I previously published “Rebellion as Genre” and “Formulas of Popular Fiction” with McFarland and Google Scholar lists 32 citations of my research by other scholars.
