CHAPTER I. WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE’S BIOGRAPHY
W. Shakespeare’s life
William Shakespeare (bapt. 26 April 1564 - 23 April 1616) was an English dramatist, writer and entertainer. He is broadly viewed as the best essayist in the English language and the world's most noteworthy screenwriter. He is many times called England's public writer and the "Poet of Avon" (or basically "the Bard").His surviving works, including joint efforts, comprise of nearly 39 plays, 154 pieces, three long story sonnets, and a couple of different stanzas, some of questionable creation. His plays have been converted into each significant living language and are performed more frequently than those of some other dramatist. His works keep on being considered and reconsidered. Shakespeare was brought up in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire. At 18 years old, he wedded Anne Hathaway, with whom he had three kids: Susanna and twins Hamnet and Judith. At some point somewhere in the range of 1585 and 1592, he started an effective profession in London as an entertainer, essayist, and part-proprietor of a playing organization considered the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men. At age 49 (around 1613), he seems to have resigned to Stratford, where he kicked the bucket three years after the fact. Barely any records of Shakespeare's confidential life get by; this has animated impressive hypothesis about such matters as his actual appearance, his sexuality, his strict convictions and whether the works credited to him were composed by others. Shakespeare produced most of his known works between 1589 and 1613. His early plays were primarily comedies and histories and are considered a number of the simplest works produced in these genres. He then wrote mainly tragedies until 1608, among them Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth, all considered to be among the best works within the English. within the last phase of his life, he wrote tragicomedies (also called romances) and collaborated with other playwrights.
Many of Shakespeare's plays were published in editions of varying quality and

accuracy in his lifetime. However, in 1623, two fellow actors and friends of Shakespeare's, John Heminges and Henry Condell, published a more definitive text called the primary Folio, a posthumous collected edition of Shakespeare's dramatic works that included nigh two of his plays. Its Preface was a prescient poem by Benjamin Jonson that hailed Shakespeare with the now famous epithet: "not of an age, except for all time".
