8. CONCLUSION
William Shakespeare is the greatest pre-eminent dramatist of
all time! Shakespeare was inspired by his political views, life
experiences and his predecessors work. He also has been judged
and re-judge time and time again! His views, beliefs and works are
still disputed, however; his plays are performed, adored and
loved by many! Shakespeare created his own language and used
codes with hidden meanings in some of his most popular works.
William Shakespeare still remains the most researched author
and actor of our his day and ours!
