William Shakespeare (1564—1616)
• We don’t know much about Shakespeare because very few facts of his life have been preserved. The facts of his life mainly came from three sources: church and legal records, folk traditions, and the comments of his contemporaries. From these facts we piece together his life. • William Shakespeare was born on April 23, 1564 in Stratford-on-Avon in Warwickshire. His father, John Shakespeare, was a well-to-do merchant and leading citizen in the town. • There is no official record of Shakespeare’s schooling, but it is widely believed that he attended the local grammar school and read widely. • In 1582, Shakespeare, aged eighteen and half, married Anne Hathaway, a farmer’s uneducated daughter, who was eight years older than Shakespeare.

Shakespeare worship, is generally traced to the Shakespeare Jubilee, which was organized by the actormanager David Garrick to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the playwright's birth (the jubilee was actually held in 1769, five years after the anniversary, but presumably time was more flexible in those days). Until then, perhaps surprisingly, Shakespeare was not doing too well. The popularity of many of his plays did not survive the 18-year-long closure of London's theaters during the Civil War and Cromwell's rule.
But after Garrick„s initiative, Shakespeare never looked back. （以上为课外阅读资料）
