William Shakespeare Research Paper

William Shakespeare was a famous mediator and amazing play writer. He was a famous poet and actor and one of the best of all time, with most of his plays still being done again and again, he is still very famous. Shakespeare was born on April 26, 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon, United Kingdom, and died in his hometown in 1616. He had three brothers and three sisters, all with the same mother and father, John and Mary Shakespeare, married in 1557. William was the oldest of his other brothers, but younger than all of his sisters. His brothers were Gilbert, Edmund, and Richard Shakespeare, again with William being the oldest of the four boys. His sisters were Joan, Margaret, and Anne Shakespeare, with Margaret being the oldest of all his siblings

She outlived her husband by seven years and passed away long before he did. They had three children in their time Hamnet Shakespeare, Susanna Hall, and Judith Quiney, with Susanna being the oldest of the three. However Hamnet, Williams only son, died at he age of eleven and passed away in 1596. There is talk that Shakespeare’s son had died from the Bubonic Plague. Before his son’s death, William wrote a play called Hamlet. Hamlet was a tale about the Prince of Denmark, who is seeking revenge on his uncle Claudius, who had killed Hamlet’s father, King Hamlet, and married his deceased brother’s widow. Being the longest story Shakespeare ever wrote, Hamlet is considered among the most powerful and influential works of world literature with a story capable of “seemingly endless retelling and adaptation by others”. Although many people thought that it was dedicated to his son Hamnet that had died, but according to Shakespeare himself. He was already working on the story before his son had passed away, so it was confirmed that he did not dedicate the story to his son. Rather it was just a story he was writing and was hoping to turn into a play when he had finally finished his work on

He made a whole list of poems, plays, and stories that would make him one of the best play writers of all and a great actor. Poems and plays like Macbeth, Hamlet, Othello and a whole lot of others. “He is a writer of great intellectual rapidity, perceptiveness, and poetic power” (Bevington, Brown, & Spencer, 2018). But not any of this success was easy for him to achieve. He had to work hard all his life to get to where he was before he passed away, he had to work hard every day and every night just to get even one of his stories made into a play, and it was harder at first to get it recommended. Without his courage and strong spirit, he would have probably given up long before he succeeded, but William was confident that he could make his dream a reality. And he did, by getting one of his poems turned into a play and along with many of his others, thus making him very famous.“You speak an infinite deal of nothing.” (Goodreads,
