Its name is often used as a general term for graphic, amoral horror entertainment, a genre popular from Elizabethan and Jacobean theatre ( for instance Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus and Webster's The White Devil ) to today's splatter films.

Lucrece is also featured in William Shakespeare's 1594 long poem The Rape of Lucrece ; he also mentioned her in Titus Andronicus, As You Like It, and Twelfth Night ( Malvolio authenticates his fateful letter by spotting Olivia's Lucrece seal ).

Joseph Sobran's book, Alias Shakespeare, includes Oxford's known poetry in an appendix with what he considers extensive verbal parallels with the work of Shakespeare, and he argues that Oxford's poetry is comparable in quality to some of Shakespeare's early work, such as Titus Andronicus.

She joined Olivier for a European tour with Titus Andronicus, but the tour was marred by Leigh's frequent outbursts against Olivier and other members of the company.

Also favouring a later date, Grace Starry West argues, " the Rome of Titus Andronicus is Rome after Brutus, after Caesar, and after Ovid.

Bate speculates that this story, with one character called Titus and another called Andronicus, could be why several contemporary references to the play are in the form Titus & ondronicus.

Any discussion of the sources of Titus Andronicus is complicated by the existence of two other versions of the story ; a prose history and a ballad ( both of which are anonymous and undated ).

Two praetors were appointed by Claudius for matters relating to Fideicommissa ( trusts ), when the business in that department of the law had become considerable, but Titus reduced the number to one ; and Nerva added a Praetor for the decision of matters between the Fiscus ( treasury ) and individuals.
