William Shakespeare (1564-161) Was Born A Tradesman's Son In Stratford-upon-avon And Died One Of The Town's Wealthiest And Most Respected Citizens. His Would Have Seemed No More Than A Modestly And Prosaically Successful Career, Were It Not For The Fact That He Was Also A Writer Of Genius. His Rival Ben Jonson Paid Him Tribute As 'not Of An Age, But For All Time'; True Enough, But He Was Also Very Much A Product Of A Particular Time: His Art Was Rooted In A Kind Of Theatre Which First Came Into Being After He Was Born And Vanished Soon After His Death; This Brief Period Saw An Extraordinary Flowering Of Literature For The Stage, A Dramatic Tradition Which Nurtured His Genius And Was In Turn Profoundly Influenced By It.
