"He was not of an age, but for all time!" While most people know that Shakespeare is, in fact, the most popular dramatist and poet the Western world has ever produced, students new to his work often wonder why this is so. The following are the top four reasons why Shakespeare has stood the test of time. His plays are interesting because he wrote for everyone, even younger generations can find something in Shakespeare in which they can identify with - be it: Teenagers - forbidden love - tragic end (Romeo & J.), sibling rivalry (King Lear), ambition - corruption (Macbeth), manipulation - jealousy (Othello), gender uncertainty (Twelfth Night), revenge (The Tempest) This is one of the reasons why I believe that Shakespeare is still important today.
