Features: William Shakespeare was a great playwright and poet during the English Renaissance. His works, except for the early poems he wrote, mainly consist of 37 blank verse tragedies. The revolutionary leaders Marx and Engels were very fond of Shakespeare's plays. They not only frequently quoted Shakespeare's dramatic works and characters in their own writings but also, when discussing the art of drama, fully recognized Shakespeare's position in the history of drama, pointed out his outstanding achievements in realistic creation, and proposed the principle of "Shakespeareanization," which means creating vivid and rich plots to shape well-defined, typical characters, rather than starting from abstract concepts and instead basing the work on real life.
