Features: Romeo and Juliet is one of the most complex and famous early works of Shakespeare; Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth are the "Four Great Tragedies" that represent the highest achievement of Shakespeare's tragic writing, and are works that fully showcase his greatness. Among them, Hamlet enjoys the highest reputation in the world, becoming an unattainable peak in the history of world drama. Shakespeare is one of the greatest writers of all time. His works have had a profound impact on literary creation in the UK and even the world. His works have been translated into almost all languages of the world, and new editions and translations continue to emerge, remaining timeless. Additionally, Shakespeare's language has permeated the daily speech of people in English-speaking countries and has shaped their understanding of poetry. In 1945, it was selected for the list of "10 Books That Shook the World." Hamlet was designated as a required reading by the newly promulgated General High School Chinese Curriculum Standards by the Ministry of Education. Shakespeare belongs to no one era, but to all centuries. — Ben Jonson Shakespeare possesses the greatest and most perceptive soul among all modern, perhaps even ancient, poets. — John Dryden
