Most of Shakespeare's familiar works were staged in between 1589 and 1613. His early works were largely a melodramatic and historical drama.

William Shakespeare Early Life

William Shakespeare's father John Shakespeare was a successful glover and alderman. His original home was in Snitterfilde. Shakespeare's mother Mary Arden was a wealthy landowner of the farming family. Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon. His baptism was completed on 26 April 1564. His exact date of birth is unknown. However, on 23 April, it is customary to celebrate his birthday on St. George's Day. In the eighteenth century, a researcher incorrectly mentioned this date as Shakespeare's birthday. The date then creates a special appeal to the biographers. Because, Shakespeare died on April 23, 1616. He was the third child of eight children with his parents.

Even though no written proof was obtainable at the time, most biographers agree that William Shakespeare most likely attended King's New school in Stratford. In 1553, this free school was chartered. The school was located a quarter-a-kilometre from Shakespeare's house. The standard of the ''Grammar schools'' in the Elizabethan era was not uniform everywhere. However, the school curriculum was specified by law throughout England. This is due to the fact that details of Latin grammar and classical literature were given in the school.

John Shakespeare's house in Stratford-on-Avon, it is considered as Shakespeare's birthplace. Shakespeare married Anne Hathaway, 26, at the age of 18. On November 27, 1582, the Consistory Court of the Anglicans of the Diocese of Worcester issued a marriage license. Two days later, Hathaway's neighbours posted a bond saying that there is no legal claim for marriage.

Their wedding ceremony was completed very fast. Worcester Chancellor "Marriage Bans" allowed it to be read-only once in a conventional three-sentence study. After six months of marriage, Anne gave birth to a girl named Suzanne. Two years later, Shakespeare's had a couple a son named Hemant and a named Judith. They were twins. Their baptism took place on February 2, 1585. Hamnet died at the age of eleven. The cause of his death is unknown. He was buried on August 11, 1596.

After the birth of the twin child, Shakespeare's subsequent historical references are found in 1592 in London, in a spectacular narrative. Experts from 1585 to 1592 refer to Shakespeare's life as "a lost year''. Biographers have arranged a tale about this episode on the basis of the many apocryphal stories. Shakespeare's first biographer and playwright Nicholas Rowe has mentioned a legend of Stratford, saying that Shakespeare fled to London to escape from the trial of cooking the deer. Another story in the eighteenth century was the Shakespeare's Theater sponsored by the patron of London's horse to work in the theatre wrote John Aubrey William Shakespeare had been a country schoolmaster. 

According to some 20th-century researchers, a Catholic landlord named Lancashire Alexander Houghton appointed him as a school teacher. This man mentioned the name of a person named "William Shakesworth" in his will. However, there is no evidence in support of these stories. All these stories came into existence after his death. On the other hand, Shakesheft is a common name in the Lancashire region.

William Shakespeare Literary works

In 1623, 36 plays Shakespeare published in First Folio were divided into three classes in that folio. These are melodrama (comedy), historical (history) and tragedy (tragedy). The two plays that have not been included in Folio are The Two Noble Kinsmen and Pericles, Prince of Tire. Experts believe that most of these two plays are Shakespeare's Composition. As such, these two plays have also been included in Shakespeare's theatrical literature. Shakespeare's poems are not included in Folio.

At the end of the nineteenth century, Edward Dowden identified four comedies of Shakespeare's last life as "romance". Although some experts favour these four plays called "Tragic -Comedy. In 1896, Frederick  All's Well That And  Well, Measure for Measure, Troilus and Cressida and Hamlet four plays used a term called "Problem Play".

He wrote, "Tragic-Comedy is known as content material-associated. So we need to use appropriate words from today's theatre and these plays belong to Shakespeare's "Problem Play" category. " This phrase caused considerable debate. Sometimes this word was used in other plays. But its use has not stopped. Although Hamlet's drama is specifically classified as a tragedy, and the other is "problem play".
