William Shakespeare was born in 1564 and died April 23 1616 He was an english play writer and poet that was considered one of the best to ever live His work style was very complex when writing his plays He would add metaphors and rhetorical phrases that would hardly match the actual story line of his pieces His work was considered the best ever in writing 38 play 154 sonnets and two narrative poems His most famous pieces are plays like Romeo and Juliet Hamlet Othello and Macbeth For his outstanding writing Shakespeare would be recognized as England's greatest writer ever and be awarded the Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Revival which recognizes the best broadway theatre producer When writing The Tempest William Shakespeare adds his fiction part of the story putting magicians sprites beasts and beauties He did this because it gave the story a realm of imagination made the story more exciting and left his playwriting open to any possibilities In many of Shakespeare's plays He uses strong imaginations in all of his plays Know thus far forth by accident most strange bountiful fortune now my dear lady Prospero's magic does not really rely on his own ability Instead nature has a big role to play on his ability and he is very humbled that he can do this and he also realizes that he is very powerful and can control a lot of different things He realizes that he is not able to do anything and does not have unlimited power Be not afeard The isle is full of noises sounds and sweet airs that give delight and hurt not sometimes a thousand twangling instruments will hum about mine ears
