Was he illiterate? Possibly.
Just a few years ago most businesses men couldn't type. That doesn't mean they couldn't do their jobs, they just hired out the work.
Same goes for studio musicians who do all the playing for "pop artists". At the end of the day it's Taylor Swift's name in the liner notes as the composer.
No illiterate could have such deep and intricate knowledge of court politics, or history, or the classics that came before, or any of the other subjects so brilliantly touched upon by “Shake-Speare”.
Comforting notion though.
Because you decreed it.
Comforting indeed.
How the fuck could an illiterate make grand and majestic insights into classical literature - much less ones that would stand for a thousand years and continue to reverberate every time some schmuck like you says “we’re in a pickle”

The Shakespeare code couldn't have been made by an illiterate either.
