作者简介

威廉·莎士比亚(1564-1616)出生于埃文河畔斯特拉特福，并在那里长大。

25岁时，莎士比亚离开斯特拉特福的妻儿，搬到伦敦，开始在环球剧院做演员并开始写作。莎士比亚著有三十多部戏剧，还写了一些优美的诗歌。

1611年，他写成《暴风雨》，这是他所有剧作中一部原创作品——通常他都是重述别人的故事。如今莎士比亚的剧作依然举世闻名，在很多人心中他是伟大的英语作家。

William Shakespeare (1564–1616) was a poet, playwright, and actor who is widely regarded as one of the most influential writers in the history of the English language. Often referred to as the Bard of Avon, Shakespeare's vast body of work includes comedic, tragic, and historical plays; poems; and 154 sonnets. His dramatic works have been translated into every major language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.
