Known as âThe Bard of Avon,â William Shakespeare is arguably the greatest English-language writer known. Enormously popular during his life, Shakespeareâs works continue to resonate more than three centuries after his death, as has his influence on theatre and literature. Shakespeareâs innovative use of character, language, and experimentation with romance as tragedy served as a foundation for later playwrights and dramatists, and some of his most famous lines of dialogue have become part of everyday speech.
