William Shakespeare-Love Labor Lost

Introduction

William Shakespeare (born 1564, died in 1616) would be sufficient only to literary glory of the age of Elizabeth. This is the dramatic poet whose fame is now the most and least reindeer challenged in the world. He took his subjects in Italian storytellers in the legends of the middle Ages, in old English pieces in Plutarch Lives translated by North, or in the national chronicles of Holinshed. He made tragedies, comedies, and rooms full of imagination and fantasy that cannot be classified in any genre. His best tragedies are: King Lear, Hamlet, revised three times, Othello, Macbeth, Julius Caesar, Richard II and Richard III. Among his comedies, we include the first line Merchant of Venice, Merry Wives of Windsor and As You like It, Love Labor Lost among the pieces purely fantastic, the Dream of a Summer Night and The Tempest.

The great merit of Shakespeare is the variety and depth of his philosophical ideas. There are more finished works than his own, there is no more powerful. His style, often unequal, too mixed with profanity and Trust, bought these defects by the abundance of images and the brightness of a poetry that has not been surpassed in England.
