Edward de Vere was the 17th Earl of Oxford. After his father died he was raised by William Cecil who was the secretary of state at the time. He was a learned man, and spent a lot of time in Italy. Many events and influences in de Vere's life appear in the works of William Shakespeare, and therefore some people believe that de Vere is Shakespeare, but published his work under a name that just happened to be the name of a man who lived in Stratford at the same time (publishing under a different name was very common at the time, but, of course, the vast majority of people believe that William Shakespeare of Stratford is the true author).
