William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare (Stratford-upon-Avon, April 26, 1564 - Stratford-upon-Avon, April 23, 1616) was an English poet and playwright, regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's most influential playwright. It is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply The Bard, "The Bard"). Of his works remained until this day 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several other poems. His plays have been translated into all major languages of the world, and are staged more than those of any other playwright. Many of his texts and themes, especially the theater, remained alive to the present day, often being revisited in theater, television, film and literature. Among his best known works are Romeo and Juliet, who became the love story par excellence, and Hamlet, which has one of the phrases most popular English language: To be or not to be: that's the question (be or not to be, that is the question).
Shakespeare was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon. At 18 years, according to some scholars, he married Anne Hathaway, who gave him three children: Susanna, and twins Hamlet and Judith. Between 1585 and 1592 William began a successful career in London as an actor, writer and one of the owners of the theater company called Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men. It is believed that he has returned to Stratford around 1613 and died three years later. That left few records of Shakespeare's private life, and there are many speculations on matters as his physical appearance, sexuality, religious beliefs, and whether some of the work assigned to it would have been written by other authors.Shakespeare produced most of his work between 1590 and 1613. His early plays were mainly comedies and works based on historical events and characters, genres he took to the apex of sophistication and artistry of the late sixteenth century. From then wrote only tragedies until about 1608,
