You probably know all about it already, but I've not seen it mentioned in this thread yet, so just in case ... the main prize of The Hoffman Prize is for an essay (5000 words+) providing "irrefutable and incontrovertible proof and evidence required to satisfy the world of Shakespearian scholarship that all the plays and poems now commonly attributed to William Shakespeare were in fact written by Christopher Marlowe". There are lesser prizes for less convincing attempts. Free entry. Up to 9000 pounds to win. Deadline 1st sept.
