Aim: Who was William Shakespeare?

Movies Based on Shakepeare Based on Othello Based on Twelfth Night Based on Taming of the Shrew Based on Romeo & Juliet

Biographical Information Birthday: unknown – Baptized: April 26, 1564 Died: April 23, 1616 Born in Stratford-upon-Avon Oftentimes called, “The Bard,” which means, the poet Married to Anne Hathaway

Shakepeare’s Plays: Tragedies, Comedies and Histories Tragedies: The fall of a great man. The fall comes from his “tragic” flaw or through the choice of action. (Hamlet, King Lear, Macbeth, Julius Caesar) Comedies: Not simply comical as we may consider it – often there are tensions between traditional roles – male vs. female, rich vs. poor, old vs. young – and often ending in marriage. Common themes include mistaken identities and love triangles. (Twelfth Night, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, As You Like It) Histories: Based on the lives of English Kings (Henry IV, Henry V, Richard III)

Shakepeare’s Influence "O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?" Romeo and Juliet "To be, or not to be, that is the question." Hamlet "Out, damn'd spot! out, I say!" Macbeth "Lord, what fools these mortals be!" A Midsummer Night’s Dream "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" Sonnet 18 "All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players." As You Like It Shakespeare had influence in shaping the English language more than anyone has ever done. Over 2000 new words and phrases were created by him, including: football, schoolboy, mimic, upstairs, downstairs, shooting star, and partner. There are many famous quotes of Shakepeare’s that have lasted and remain recognizable to most, educated people.
