莎士比亞另有其人說

莎士比亞及另外四位可能是莎士比亞作品真正作者的人的畫像 — 愛德華·德·維爾、弗蘭西斯·培根、威廉·斯坦利（英語：William Stanley, 6th Earl of Derby）和克里斯托弗·馬洛（從左上角順時針數起，莎士比亞居中）都被認為是莎士比亞作品的真正作者。

莎士比亞另有其人說是威廉·莎士比亞的作品是否出自他人之手的一種假說。其支持者認為，「莎士比亞」不過是一張面具，隱藏在其後面的可能是另一位作者，甚至是多位作者，他們因為各種原因不能用真實的名字展示自己的著作。^[1]這個假說引起了公眾廣泛的討論，^[2]但有一小部分研究莎士比亞的學者和文學史家則認為，該假說不過是對莎士比亞的貶損。^[3]

莎士比亞第一次受到質疑是在19世紀中葉。^[4]2009年4月，美國最高法院大法官約翰·保羅·史蒂文斯聲稱認為莎士比亞的真實身份是第十七代牛津伯爵愛德華·德·維爾。^[5]
