2. Warrick- point one (part 1)
William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-avon in the UK on the 23rd April
1564, he was the third child of a Leather Merchant Named John Shakespeare and a
woman Name Mary Arden. William completed most of his schooling at a school called
Kings new school in Stratford, it was here that he learnt to read and write and
developed his love for writing. Shakespeare married at age 18 to a woman named Anne
Hathaway. Anne was 26 at the time. Anne and William’s first child Was born on the
26th May 1583 and she was called Susana, William and Anne next had twins, Hamnet
and Judith they were born on the 15th february 1585, Hamnet later died of unknown
causes at the age of 11. The lost seven years of shakespeare life is a period where there
are no records at all on shakespeare therefore dubbed the lost period. By the early
1950’s shakespeare was found to be the managing partner in an acting company called
the lord chamberlain’s men, this company was later called the King’s men, they were
renamed after the crowning of King James I.

3. Warrick- point one (part 2 )
William Shakespeare is believed by some to not even have existed due to the lack of
evidence and records of his life. By 1599 William and his stage partners had started
their own theater company called the globe, although in the days coming and at
present the theater business was not as appreciated by the high ranking folk but there
were still some that admired Shakespeare works.

6. Kade - Shakespeare's Influence On The World
● Shakespeare's influence covers parts from theatre and literature to movies that captivate us today to
Western philosophy, and the English language itself.
● Shakespeare came across as the most quoted person in English history after the writers of the Bible. His
quotes are remembered through movies, theatre productions and books. Many of his most famous
expressions and own vocabulary have been used countless times in today's English and other languages.
● He was well known to write and never portray boring material, while still depicting and changing English
life, laguage, culture and home as well as abroad experience. Shakespeare’s words created depth amongst
topics such as love and hate, war and peace, freedom and ruthlessness.
● In 52 years he roamed this earth, he had such a large impact on society and the way we now see the real
power of words, we may never grasp how much he really changed the English language. Shakespeare not
only changed the English language but enhanced it in such a way that we can now express true emotion
which could vary from love and lust, mournfulness and rage, hope and despair.

7. Kade -If and why Shakespeare is still relevant.
● Shakespeare's words and his memorable writing continues to impact well known novelists, artists and
poets throughout history. His famous quotes and the way he was able to explain his feelings was idolized
by many.
● Shakespeare not only transformed theaters throughout the world but exceeded expectations about the
English language as well as theatre life. He was able to expand the possible accomplishments through his
innovation in characterization, plot, language and the genre he set.
● Shakespeare’s work is still significantly relevant today because the characters are relatable, works from
long ago can still be relevant, and talking about the plays could make for an interesting conversation.
First, Shakespeare’s work is still relevant today because we can relate to the characters. One of the
biggest topics Shakespeare is relevant for is his creation of his characters who are still relatable to
characters today. His works from his time can still be called significant and relevant to what people talk
about in threats and what some people can compare today's play with his plays.
● Shakespeare is also commonly known today through his famous quotes and it is likely you have quoted
him before. "A heart of gold" “the world’s mine oyster”
