William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare (1564–1616) war ein englischer Dramatiker, Lyriker und Schauspieler in London und Stratford-upon-Avon. Er gilt als einer der einflussreichsten Autoren der Weltliteratur, dessen Tragödien, Komödien und Sonette grundlegende menschliche Konflikte um Macht, Schuld und Vergänglichkeit behandeln. Für Bibelleser bieten seine Texte, die vielfach von biblischer Sprache und Motiven durchzogen sind, tiefgründige Anschauungen über das Wesen des Menschen und existenzielle moralische Fragen.
