Actually not just the sonnets. He is the strongest candidate proposed (next to William Shakespeare himself) for the authorship of Shakespeare’s plays.
A major difficulty in the Oxfordian theory, however, is his death date (1604), because, according to standard chronology, 14 of Shakespeare’s plays, including many of the most important ones, were apparently written after that time. The debate, however, remained lively in the late 20th century.
Over to yooh, pooh.
