The Radical Argument of the New Oxford Shakespeare

“Late last year, Taylor shocked readers once again. The New Oxford
Shakespeare, for which Taylor serves as lead general editor, is the
first edition of the plays to credit Christopher Marlowe as a co-author
of Shakespeare’s “Henry VI,” Parts 1, 2, and 3. It lists co-authors for
fourteen other plays as well, ushering a host of playwrights—Thomas
Nashe, George Peele, Thomas Heywood, Ben Jonson, George Wilkins, Thomas
Middleton, and John Fletcher, along with Marlowe—into the big tent of
the complete works. This past fall, headlines around the world trumpeted
the Marlowe-Shakespeare connection, and spotlighted the editors’
methodology: computer-aided analysis of linguistic patterns across
databases of early modern plays. “Shakespeare has now fully entered the
era of Big Data,” Taylor announced in a press release.”

What about:
Anthony and Cleopatra by William Shakespeare and Thomas North
Coriolanus by Thomas North and William Shakespeare
Macbeth by William Shakespeare and Raphael Holinshed
etc.

I have to say I was a little bit shocked.

On amazon, one can view the Table of Contents of the volumes.
In New Oxford Shakespeare: Modern Critical Edition --
just after pg. vi:

For Henry VI, Pt. 2 & 3: Shakespeare, Marlowe, and Anonymous, revised by S.

For Henry VI, Pt. 1: Marlowe, Nashe, and Anonymous, adapted by S.

Depending on how much source was used, and how much it
was changed,...

Maybe anonymous writers in many EME plays will be sorted out someday too.
