Who is the greatest English writer The person should be William Shakespeare. His popular expressions, like “To be or not to be, that is a question”, and his plays such as Romeo and Juliet are almost famous in every corner of the world.
William Shakespeare was born in a small town in England in 1564. When he was young, he moved to London and began to work as a playwright(剧作家). By 1594, he had become an important playwright in London.
Whether comedies or tragedies, Shakespeare’s plays always catch people’s hearts. His comedies make a joke of human weakness and always have a happy ending.
In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, fairies(仙女) play magical tricks on people lost in the woods. His tragedies, however, can be very dark. Macbeth tells the story about a man who becomes a king by killing a lot of people.
Shakespeare’s works also have a big influence on the English language. He created about 1,700 English words, including everyday ones like “lonely” and “hurry”.
Of course, Shakespeare wrote his plays over 400 years ago and his English was very different from that of today. But it doesn’t influence his fame(名气). His plays have been translated into other languages and are performed more often. There are over 400 films and TV plays adapted from his works. Shakespeare is not of an age, but for all the time.
