	Shakespeare's reputation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ideas about Shakespeare that many people think of as typically post-Romantic were frequently expressed in the 18th and even in the 17th century: he was described as a genius who needed no learning, as deeply original, and as creating uniquely "real" and individual characters (see Timeline of Shakespeare criticism).
		The belief in the unappreciated 18th-century Shakespeare was proposed at the beginning of the 19th century by the Romantics, in support of their view of 18th-century literary criticism as mean, formal, and rule-bound, which was contrasted with their own reverence for the poet as prophet and genius.
		Shakespeare became an important emblem of national pride in the 19th century, which was the heyday of the British Empire and the acme of British power in the world.

		William Shakespeare (also spelled Shakspere, Shaksper, Shaxper, and Shake-speare, due to the fact that spelling in Elizabethan times was not fixed and absolute[8]) was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in April 1564, the son of John Shakespeare, a successful glover and alderman from Snitterfield, and of Mary Arden, a daughter of the gentry.
		Beginning in the late 17th century, Shakespeare began to be considered the supreme English-language playwright (and, to a lesser extent, poet).
		John Shakespeare was also listed as one who did not attend church services, but this was “for feare of processe for Debtte”, according to the commissioners, not because he was a recusant.[17] Then again, avoiding creditors may have merely been a convenient pretext for a recusant’s avoidance of the established church’s services.

		Shakespeare’s influence on the English-speaking world shows in the widespread use of quotations from Shakespearean plays the titles of works based on Shakespearean phrases, and the many adaptations of his.
		Because of the similarities of their names, some suspect that his death was part of the inspiration behind The Tragical History of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark (c.1601), a reworking of an older, lost play.
		The unbending French neo-classical “rules”; and the three unities of time, place, and action were never strictly followed in England, and practically all critics gave the more “correct” Ben Jonson second place to “the incomparable Shakespeare” (John Dryden, 1668), the follower of nature, the untaught genius, the great realist of human character.

		Shakespeare was criticized for mixing comedy and tragedy and failing to observe the unities of time and place prescribed by the rules of classical drama.
		The tendency in 20th-century criticism has been to abandon both the study of character as independent personality and the assumption that moral considerations can be separated from their dramatic and aesthetic context.
		Caroline Spurgeon began the careful classification of Shakespeare's imagery, and although her attempts were later felt to be somewhat naive and morally biased, her work is a landmark in Shakespearean criticism.

		Nothing breeds envy like success and it is proof of William's growing stature as a playwright that at this point in his career he begins to draw criticism from less successful playwrights and those who feel that he has plagiarized their material.
		One such critic is Robert Greene, who is already dying when he launches a thinly veiled attack on Shakespeare.
		Greene's attack is so embittered and vitriolic that, in an example of how Shakespeare's support and profile was increasing, Chettle is forced into printing a groveling retraction.
