William Shakespeare (April 26, 1564 (baptism)–d. April 23, 1616) was an English poet and playwright and is considered a key member of the English literature canon. Shakespeare's

work includes 154 sonnets and 38 plays; while his earlier plays were comedies and histories, his later work focused on tragedy (e.g. "Macbeth"). Shakespeare's reputation grew after his death and especially in the 19th century when he became the world's most celebrated dramatist. Now his work is reinterpreted and performed around the world.
