We continue our Deep Dive into England’s Tudor period and its influence on America by examining the immeasurable contribution made by an Englishman on one of the continent’s main languages and culture. Although this gentleman never visited the continent per se, his words flowed across the ocean onto the immense territory to greatly impact its means of communication. Let’s explore the life, deeds and works of this Tudor era Titan of History... William Shakespeare (1564-1616). Let’s appreciate the immeasurable contribution made by an Englishman on one of North America’s main languages and culture. English actor, playwright, poet, and London theatre owner from the early 1590s to 1613, William Shakespeare (1564-1616), known as "the Bard of Avon", authored at least 37 plays and collaborated on several more. He also wrote 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and a few other verses.
