Шекспир Уильям (23 апреля 1564 года – 23 апреля 1616 года)

The name of William Shakespeare is known all over the world. The last half of the 16-th and the beginning of the 17-th centuries are known as the Golden Age of English Renaissance and sometimes are called 'The Age of Shakespeare'.

Shakespeare was born on April 23,1564 in Stratford - on - Avon. His father was a dealer in corn, meat, wool. William's mother was a daughter of a rich farmer in the village of Wilmcote. Being 18 years old, William married Anne Hathaway, who was 9 years older that himself. They had a daughter Susanna and twins - son Hamnet and daughter Judith.

People often call Shakespeare 'Our National Bard', 'The Immortal Poet of Nature'

(Shakespeare’s birthplace)

In 1567 Shakespeare went to London to find a job, where he began writing plays staged at the Globe Theatre. By 1592, he had been an important member of a well - known acting company of London.

Only in 1611, at the height of his fame, Shakespeare returned to Stratford, where in April 23, 1616 he died. He was buried in a fine old church in Stratford.

We have mentioned the main facts in Shakespeare's biography. Now agree or disagree with some facts from William Shakespeare's life:

“The Comedy of Errors” “Hamlet, Prince of Denmark” “Othello” “All’s Well that Ends Well” “King Lear” “The Taming of the Strew” “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” “Macbeth” “Much Ado about Nothing” “Twelfth Night” “Romeo and Juliet” “Julius Caesar” “Anthony and Cleopatra” “The Merry Wives of Windsor”

Please, divide Shakespeare’s plays into tragedies and comedies:

From “Hamlet, Prince of Denmark”

To be, or not to be, that is the question: Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune: Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by apposing, end them? To die – to sleep, no more, and, by a sleep to say we end The heart – ache, and the thousand natural shocks, that flesh in heir to; ‘tis a consummation, devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep. – To sleep, perchance to dream…

Translate these phrases:

The beginning of the end. The whirling of time. There’s the rub. All is well that ends well. To win golden opinions.

Начало конца. Превратности судьбы. Вот в чём загвоздка. Всё хорошо, что хорошо кончается. Заслужить благоприятное мнение.
