Detailed explanation-1: -It’s possible to see common themes that appear in all the plays. The four most prominent are: appearance and reality; change; order and disorder; and conflict. Those were matters that deeply affected Shakespeare as he walked about and observed the world around him.
Detailed explanation-2: -Shakespeare’s works have strong themes that run through each piece. And again, these themes are still relevant today – love, death, ambition, power, fate, free will, just to name a few. So Shakespeare’s works are timeless and universal. That also makes them relatable.
Detailed explanation-3: -He created compound words, adverbs, and adjectives from verbs. Shakespeare added suffixes and prefixes to many words. Through his experimentation, he expanded the idea of characterization, plot development, and genre. Shakespeare was the first to connect romance and tragedy in a lasting way.
Detailed explanation-4: -Shakespeare’s three most likely sources were the Geneva Bible, the Bishop’s Bible, and the Book of Common Prayer. The works prior to 1598 show more influence from the Bishop’s Bible; the works thereafter align more closely with the Geneva Bible.
