William Shakespeare (baptised 26 April 156423 April 1616)[a] was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist.[1] He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "The Bard"). His surviving works consist of 38 plays,[b] 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several other poems. His plays have been translated into every major living language, and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.[2]

Shakespeare was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon. At the age of 18 he married Anne Hathaway, who bore him three children Susanna, and twins Hamnet and Judith. Between 1585 and 1592 he began a successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part owner of the playing company the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men. He appears to have retired to Stratford around 1613, where he died three years later. Few records of Shakespeare's private life survive, and there has been considerable speculation about such matters as his sexuality, religious beliefs, and whether the works attributed to him were written by others.[3]

Shakespeare produced most of his known work between 1590 and 1613. His early plays were mainly comedies and histories, genres he raised to the peak of sophistication and artistry by the end of the sixteenth century. Next he wrote mainly tragedies until about 1608, including Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth, considered some of the finest examples in the English language. In his last phase, he wrote tragicomedies, also known as romances, and collaborated with other playwrights. Many of his plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy during his lifetime, and in 1623 two of his former theatrical colleagues published the First Folio, a collected edition of his dramatic works that included all but two of the plays now recognised as Shakespeare's.

Shakespeare was a respected poet and playwright in his own day, but his reputation did not rise to its present heights until the nineteenth century. The Romantics, in particular, acclaimed Shakespeare's genius, and the Victorians hero-worshipped Shakespeare with a reverence that George Bernard Shaw called "bardolatry".[4] In the twentieth century, his work was repeatedly adopted and rediscovered by new movements in scholarship and performance. His plays remain highly popular today and are consistently performed and reinterpreted in diverse cultural and political contexts throughout the world.

1. Gift Ideas For Women: ‘Choc' One Up For Her
November 21, 2008

“Love comforteth like sunshine after the rain…” Ok, so it isn’t the 1500s, and you aren’t William Shakespeare. Therefore, doting her by way of a romantic sonnet might not be what’s in store for that special gift. What, then?

But what most of us love even more, is to be thought of with deep consideration; to have someone know us well enough to choose a gift that is fitting for u... (read more)

2. What Is Human Behavior And Why Aren't All Humans The Same?
November 16, 2008

The Individual And Human Behavior Human behavior is acting in a responsible and acceptable manner when interacting with others. Social behavior is the act of keeping in accord with good and acceptable social standards. What is social interaction? In order to define acceptable social standards, one must first understand social interaction. All humans are individualized in manner and actions. To quote William Shakespeare, "The world is a stage and people are merely actors" is truer than we would like to admit. Behavior is simply the progress of performing. Human behavior comes in man...

Radiohead tickets are now available and can be bought or sold online at StubHub.com.Though William Shakespeare produced one of the most prodigious and brilliant bodies of fictional writing in known history, Romeo and Juliet remains his best-known play. It’s certainly his most accessible, touching on people’s reverence for the idealism of youth and young, passionate love.It seemed the perfect work to adapt for modern audiences in the early ‘90s, when Baz Luhrmann took the story and transported it to a bizarre, hyper-kinetic alternate universe where the Capulets and Mongagues looked like two war...

7. Shakespeare: What Can a Great Poet Teach Us about Clear, Concise Expository Writing?
June 30, 2008

by Philip Yaffe William Shakespeare was unquestionably one of the world's greatest poets and poetic playwrights. Arguably, his mastery of English far surpassed that of anyone else who ever put pen to paper. So what can Shakespeare -- a genius at playing the language almost like a violin -- possibly teach us about expository (non-fiction) writing, where ideas must prevail and the language made as inconspicuous as possible? He can teach us that being a truly accomplished writer means knowing when to turn a beautiful phrase and when to speak plainly. Perhaps more than anyone... (read more)

Unquote Caesar, an excerpt from "Julius Caesar" William Shakespeare 1564-1616 You are doubtlessly aware of the incontrovertible outcome of that tale as relates to "sleek-headed men, with lean and hungry looks"? I dont have any substantiated grounds that "sleek-headed men, with lean and hungry looks", are any more perilous than plump or obese men? Nevertheless; in William Shakespeare's era, he m...

13. To Create Wealth, Create the Right Identity - The Sedona Method
February 10, 2008

Your identity is your perception of who you are in this world; it’s the image you hold of yourself in your head. Early on in life you decided what character you were going to play in the theatre of life and you’ve proceeded to act in accordance with the personality, traits, and qualities of said character ever since. In the words of the bard William Shakespeare: “All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players. . .” If wealth and success have so far eluded you, it’s very likely that your self image—that is, the character you’ve chosen to play--is largely to blame.

22. ‘Hamlet' by William Shakespeare
July 07, 2007

Hamlet has inspired more critical speculation and comment from critics and scholars than any other play by any dramatist in English literature, including Shakespeare himself. The play has become a cultural icon of our times. The first performance of Hamlet was in all probability within 1601 to 1602. Shakespeare put together the story of Hamlet on the basis of his familiarity of Ur-Hamlet, which in turn was based on an account of Hamlet in Belleforest and Saxo. But Shakespeare’s play was still distinct from the original Hamlet. Hamlet is a revenge play. Revenge as an aspect of plot struct... (read more)
