Autorenporträt

William Shakespeare was a well renowned English playwright, poet, and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's leading dramatist. Born on April 23, 1564, in Stratford-upon-Avon, he is often referred to as England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon." His works, including iconic plays and sonnets, have had a profound influence on literature, theater, and the English language. Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway in 1582, and they had three children: Hamnet, Judith, and Susanna. He received his education at King Edward VI School in Stratford, which helped shape his literary career. Throughout his life, Shakespeare produced an extensive body of work, ranging from tragedies and comedies to historical plays, many of which remain central to the Western literary canon. He passed away on April 23, 1616, on his 52nd birthday, leaving behind a legacy that continues to impact literature, theater, and cultural history.
