No, hypothesis 2 is not "an Elizabethan author was the greatest author of all time". Hypothesis 2 is what I said it was. I don't think I can say it any more clearly.
You should have been more explicit about your assumption that "greatest author" != "person humans 'elevate' as greatest author", especially since I think it's false.
