William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare was born on April 26, 1564 (he wasn't! It was April 23!). 

His birth place was Stratford-upon-Avon in England.

He was a famous playwright, poet and actor.

In our English lessons we will read his comedy "Much Ado About Nothing", in German "Viel Lärm um nichts". (I read it in my GCSE English class - it's funny!)

Can you tell me more about Shakespeare, something very interesting or something I should have read/seen?

Shakespeare is famous in the whole world but do you know Goethe?

Sehr gut! Es freut mich sehr, dass die Deutschen bei der Schule Shakespeare lesen. :) 

In England we have to study Shakespeare from when we are 13 until when we are 16 as part of English Literature class, which is compulsory. The plays we read were "A Midsummer Night's Dream", "Much Ado About Nothing" and "Macbeth". The latter is probably his most famous play apart from "Romeo and Juliet". It's about a Scottish king who kills his way to power in mediaeval times.

I once heard a hypothesis that there was a whole team of writers who wrote the famous today works of Shakespeare; that they used this pseudonym for signing the books. But it seems so strange to me, I can hardly believe this theory. I really enjoyed reading Shakespeare's "Much Ado about nothing", you're lucky to read it soon. Yes, I know Goethe, and his tragic play "Faust" is my favourite book. It is so rich, and expressive, and wise. I often quote lines from this book.
