Shakespeare and the barriers of time


In England during the government of Queen Elizabeth I. Emerge one of the most known writer in the word called William Shakespeare. He was an English man that apart to write, also was a poet, playwright, and an actor. Shakespeare is one of the few authors that have the most part of his work translated into the major living languages and also transcended the barriers of time. Why we still reading his work? And why is so important to know about him?

The English language that we know never would be the same if Shakespeare were not born because he create more than 1700 words that we use daily and also we use it in other languages, one of the words are:
  • Gossip. Appear on “The comedy of error”
  • Advertising. Appear on “Measure for Measure”
  • Accused. Appear on “Richard II”
  • Dawn. Appear on “Henry V”
  • Invulnerable. Appear on “King Jhon”
  • Generous. Appear on “Love's Labours Lost”
  • Unreal  appear on “Macbeth”

Also he creates some names that nowadays are really common like Jessica, Miranda, Olivia and Rosaline. He invented those names for some of his dramatically stories and the people still use it. Shakespeare invent a lot of stories that we continue reading and talking  about them nowadays and that’s very significate because it is like he were still alive, but we are the ones who keep it alive. Even that, we are the ones who make adaptation of his work like movies for example Romeo and Juliet.


Year of release in order: 1968,1996, 2013   

Definitely we are immersed in the writing of Shakespeare and it is fascinating that we still reading and making that this man influence in our lives. How would be our history without this man?                       

Why did you think that we still talking about his work? and why we still love it?
