#3 -- ... to participate in the conspiracy ...
#9 -- ... during Shakespeare's time ...
"own" not "owns"
#11 -- comma after "forty-five years"
Delete all in parentheses. The rest of the sentences are fine. For synonyms, remember to go to http://www.thesaurus.com
#11 is fine as is -- with a period at the end.
#12 needs to be two separate sentences and needs some commas after introductory clauses/phrases.
