2. WilliamShakespeare
William Shakespeare (26 April 1564 – 23 April 1616) was an
English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest
writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent
dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the
"Bard of Avon". His surviving works, including some
collaborations, consist of about 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long
narrative poems, two epitaphs on a man named John Combe,
one epitaph on Elias James, and several other poems. His
plays have been translated into every major living language and
are performed more often than those of any other playwright.
Shakespeare was born and brought up in Stratford-upon-Avon.
At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway, with whom he had
three children: Susanna, and twins Hamnet and Judith.
Between 1585 and 1592, he began a successful career in
London as an actor, writer, and part owner of a playing company
called the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the
King's Men. He appears to have retired to Stratford around
1613 at age 49, where he died three years later. Few records of
Shakespeare's private life survive, and there has been
considerable speculation about such matters as
his physical appearance, sexuality, religious beliefs, and
whether the works attributed to him were written by others.
3. Ro me o and Julie t
Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written early in the career
of William Shakespeare about two young star-crossed
lovers whose deaths ultimately reconcile their feuding
families. It was among Shakespeare's most popular plays
during his lifetime and, along with Hamlet, is one of his
most frequently performed plays. Today, the title
characters are regarded as archetypal young lovers.
Romeo and Juliet belongs to a tradition of tragic romances
stretching back to antiquity. Its plot is based on an Italian
tale, translated into verse as
The Tragical History of Romeus and Juliet by
Arthur Brooke in 1562 and retold in prose in Palace of
Pleasure by William Painter in 1567. Shakespeare
borrowed heavily from both but, to expand the plot,
developed supporting characters, particularly Mercutio and
Paris. Believed to have been written between 1591 and
1595, the play was first published in a quarto version in
1597. This text was of poor quality, and later editions
corrected it, bringing it more in line with Shakespeare's
original.
4. Book review
● In the present drama, we often see the phrase
"children are innocent", it can be the story is
often the last, the child's fate is the most
tragic. To the family interests, Romeo and
Juliet with a loss, in desperation, the choice of
relief. Driven by a love them to death
forward, the situation urging them to abandon
the family together Romeo and Juliet was
doomed to the fate of their repulsion, pain
hidden behind the number of helpless ah.
Romeo and Juliet's story is not just a drama, it
must also be a portrayal of real life at that
time, too much control over becoming
countless helpless, this is love to bring people
to unforgettable memories.
5. Book review
● Clearly, Romeo and Juliet's love of the
Arrow has been folded pieces, spoilers
powerful as if the lightning can be split
pine and cypress. Do not think that
love can be a strong long-term, once it
is detrimental to the interests of third
parties, then this situation will surely
be forced to break up the danger.
Regardless of whether they are
innocent, no matter how they resist the
background of the story had been
foreshadowing for their outcome.
Their tragic do? Perhaps, because they
could not spend the old to learn, but
the roots of premature death, perhaps
not, because they find a final part of
his own the other half
