There is no real debate over Shakespeare's authenticity. If anyone one wants to try a _really_ hard case for proving attribution, try to prove that Swift wrote Gulliver's Travels. He did, but the hard evidence for his doing so is much flimsier than the hard evidence for Shakespeare writing The Plays.
