William Shakespeare is the greatest of all playwrights and poets of all times. Not much is known of his life. William Shakespeare was born 1564, in the town of Stratford-upon-Avon. His father, John Shakespeare, was a glove-maker and wool-dealer.
William went to the local free grammar school where he studied Latin. At the age of 18 Shakespeare married and had 3 children. Little is known of his life before 1592, when he appeared as a playwright in London. Soon he became an actor playing supporting roles like the ghost in "Hamlet". In 1599 Shakespeare became a part owner of the Globe Theatre in London.
Shakespeare wrote history plays such as "Henry IV" and "Richard III", comedies such as "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and "A Comedy of Errors". Shakespeare's early tragedy is "Romeo and Juliet".
Between 1600 and 1608 Shakespeare wrote his four
great tragedies, "Hamlet" "Othello" "Macbeth" and
"King Lear". It is the summit of Shakespeare's art.
"Hamlet" is probably the most popular, the best-known
of all Shakespeare's plays. It is a very philosophical play.
Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, is a highly intelligent person.
Hamlet's soliloquy is very famous: "To be, or not to be;
that is the question..."
Queen Elizabeth I died in 1603 and was succeede
by James VI of Scotland, son of Mary Stuart. James,
who became James I of England and Scotland,
was a lover of the theatre.
Shakespeare wrote a tragedy "Macbeth" in which
action passes in Scotland. In 1606 Shakespeare was
a very mature and successful playwright. He had
become a wealthy man.
In "King Lear" we see evil defeated. "King Lear"
is the greatest of all Shakespeare's tragedies.
The story of an old king of England and his
three daughters was not invented by Shakespeare.
Shakespeare hardly ever invented the plot of his plays.
Between 1608 and 1613, Shakespeare wrote five plays: "Pericles" "Cymbeline" "The Winter's Tale" "The Tempest" and "Henry VIII" In "The Tempest" Shakespeare says farewell to the theatre, to his friends.
On June 29, 1613, the Globe theatre was destroyed in a fire. For Shakespeare and his colleagues it must have been a terrible time. The Globe was the greatest theatre in England.
Shakespeare died on April 23, 1616.
He wrote 38 plays and many poems.
Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare early in his career about the romance between two Italian youths from 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. The plot is based on an Italian
tale translated into verse as
The Tragical History of Romeus and Julie
by Arthur Brooke in 1562 and
retold in prose in Palace of Pleasure by
William Painter in 1567. Shakespeare
borrowed heavily from both but expanded
the plot by developing a number
of 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. The text of the first quarto
version was of poor quality,
however, and later editions corrected the
text to conform more closely
with Shakespeare's original.

Romeo and Juliet has been adapted numerous times for stage, film, musical, and opera venues. During the English Restoration, it was revived and heavily revised by William Davenant. David Garrick's 18th-century version also modified several scenes, removing material then considered indecent, and Georg Benda's Romeo und Julie omitted much of the action and used a happy ending. Performances in the 19th century, including Charlotte Cushman's, restored the original text and focused on greater realism.
John Gielgud's 1935 version kept very close to Shakespeare's text and used Elizabethan costumes and staging to enhance the drama. In the 20th and into the 21st century, the play has been adapted in versions as diverse as George Cukor's 1936 film Romeo and Juliet, Franco Zeffirelli's 1968 film Romeo and Juliet, Baz Luhrmann's 1996 MTV-inspired film Romeo + Juliet, and most recently, Carlo Carlei's 2013 film Romeo and Juliet.
