William Shakespeare (1564–1616) föddes i Stratford-upon-Avon och trots att lite är känt om honom räknas han som litteraturhistoriens viktigaste dramatiker. Känd och spelad redan under sin livstid fick hans trettiosju pjäser ett ännu större erkännande efter den första samlade utgåvan 1623. I Sverige vaknade intresset för Shakespeare relativt sent, men han har alltsedan mitten av 1800-talet spelats på alla stora teatrar i olika odödliga tolkningar och uppsättningar."Shakespeare tillhörde inte bara en tidsålder, utan evigheten." Ben Jonson
