William Shakespeare was the greatest writer in the English literature. He was born in 1564 in Stratford- upon- Avon. At the age of eighteen he married Anne Hathaway, who was eight years older than himself. A few years later he moved to London, where he worked as a actor and a playwright. Shakespeare wrote thirty seven plays and 154 sonnets (a kind of poem containing 14 lines). His most famous plays are the four great tragedies - Othelo, Macbeth, Hamlet, and King Lear.
