JERUSALEM: Shakespeare was actually a Jewish woman who had disguised to get her work published in Elizabethan London where original literature from women was not acceptable, an expert has contended.

The woman, Amelia Bassano Lanier Bassano, was of Italian descent and lived in England as a Marrano. She has been known only as the first woman to publish a book of poetry ( Salve Deus Rex Judaeorum in 1611) and as a candidate for "the dark lady" referred to in the sonnets, daily Ha'aretz reported.

You got a dog named Plato? That's kind of cool. I once knew a lady with a great dane named Sulaman. After a Chinese warrior.

But if it is true the bard was a woman, that would kind of explain how come I understood the whole battle and story line of henry V.
