Features: Elizabethan English society, with strict class concepts, where the universe exists in order: Believing in Christianity, but also creating a supernatural fairy world. Shakespeare, living in this environment, is closely connected to his surroundings while also transcending time and space, reflecting common human traits. His comedies are lively and noisy, tragedies are sincere and helpless, and the life observations revealed in his dialogues indeed grasp the clarity and weakness of human nature. Shakespeare is a successful playwright, captivating the theater audiences of his time, and his works have condensed into pearls, becoming unparalleled literary treasures.
