About his works
The works of William Shakespeare are a great land mark in the history of world literature. He was the first founders of realism(现实主义)，a masterhood at realistic portrayal of human characters and relations. Karl Marx regarded Aeschylus and Shakespeare as “the two greatest dramatic geniuses the world has ever know.” Shakespeare took stories from old sources such as old drama, novel, chronicles(编年史)and folk legends. （民间传说) Under Shakespeare‟s pen, those stories assumed new meaning and significance.

William Shakespeare Shall I compare thee to a summer’ s day? Thou art more love ly and more tempe rate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer’s lease hath all too short a date: Sometime too hot the eye of the heaven shines And often is his gold complexion dimmed; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance or nature’s changing course untrimmed; But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st; Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st: So long as a man can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives live to thee.
