William Shakespeare was the greatest writer in the English language. He was born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. At the age of 18 he married Anne Hathaway, who was eight years older than himself. A few years later he moved to London, where he worked as an actor and a playwright.

Shakespeare wrote 37 plays and 154 sonnets. His most famous plays are the four great tragedies - 'Othello', 'Macbeth', 'Hamlet', and 'King Lear'. He also wrote several historical plays. Eight of these plays were about English kings, including 'Richard II', 'Henry V' and 'Richard III'. Others dealt with Roman history and included 'Julius Caesar' and 'Antony and Cleopatra'. But not all of Shakespeare's plays were serious. He also wrote comedies, such as 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' and 'Twelfth Night'.

Shakespeare died in Strafford on 23 April 1616, but his plays arc still very popular today. They have been translated into several different languages, and many of them have been made into films. Shakespeare's plays are about the great issues of life - love, hate, jealousy, power, ambition, death and so on. So, his plays are just important today as they were in the sixteenth century. To show this, modern directors sometimes do the plays in modern dress, and one of Shakespeare's plays has even been turned into a modern musical. His romantic tragedy, 'Romeo and Juliet', was the basis for the musical 'West Side Story'.
