William Shakespeare's Comedy- Volume 1

William Shakespeare's Comedy Volume 1

William Shakespeare, often called the English national poet, is widely considered the greatest dramatist of all time. William Shakespeare's early plays were written in the conventional style of the day, with elaborate metaphors and rhetorical phrases that didn't always align naturally with the story's plot or characters. However, Shakespeare was very innovative, adapting the traditional style to his own purposes and creating a freer flow of words. Shakespeare primarily used a metrical pattern consisting of lines of unrhymed iambic pentameter, or blank verse, to compose his plays.  William Shakespeare's Comedy Volume 1 comprise of A Midsummer Night's Dream, As You Like It, The Tempest, The Merchant of Venice and Much Ado About Nothing. We have added an Introduction page to the book and a Reader Guide for the readers to understand Shakespearean style of writing and his language.
