beginning of the XVII centuries are known as the golden age of English literature. It was the time of the English Renaissance, and sometimes it is even called “the age of Shakespeare”

greatest and most famous of English writers, and probably the greatest playwright who has ever lived, was born in Stratford-on-Avon. In spite of his fame we know very little about his life. The things that we know about Shakespeare’s life begin with the date when he was baptized in the church of Stratford, on April 26, 1564, when he was only a few days old. So he is believed to have been born on April 23

of Stratford. Here lived Shakespeare`s mother. This is a typical farm house of the period

his shop in this house. He was a glove-maker. His eight children were born here. Two of them died young

people believe.
It is still in use

in 1556, and lived until she married William Shakespeare in 1582

While still a teenager, William married Anne Hathaway, a farmer's daughter some years older than himself. We don't know how he earned his living during these early years, perhaps he helped his father in the family business. During these years his three children were born: Susannah, the eldest, then twins - a son , Hamnet ,and another girl, Judith

went to London. We don’t know why he left Stratford-on-Avon. Some people say that the reason was his love of poetry and theatre. But there is another story which says that he had to run away from law because he killed some deer belonging to a rich man.

London was holding rich men’s horses at the theatre door. But nobody can be sure that this story is true.
Later, Shakespeare became an actor and a member of one of the chief acting companies. Soon he began to write plays for this company and in a few years became a well-known author

as Hamlet, King Lear, Othello, Macbeth,
light comedies, such as All`s Well That Ends Well, Twelfth Night, Much Ado About Nothing, The Merry Wives of Windsor, historical dramas, such as Henry IV and Richard III
