Author • William Shakespeare Author’s Biography: William Shakespeare (baptised 26 April 1564 – 23 April 1616) was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's preeminent dramatist.[1] He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "The Bard"). His surviving works consist of 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several other poems. His plays have been translated into every major living language, and are performed more often than those of any other playwright. Climax: The deaths of Romeo and Juliet in the Capulet tomb Themes • The forcefulness of love; love as a cause of violence; the individual versus society; the inevitability of fate. Settings (time) • Renaissance (fourteenth or fifteenth century) Settings (place) • Verona and Mantua (cities in northern Italy) Point of view • Insofar as a play has a point of view, that of Romeo and Juliet; occasionally the play uses the point of view of the Montague and Capulet servants to illuminate the actions of their masters.
