Title Shakespeare, William Dates and places of birth and deathBorn: 1564, Stratford-upon-Avon, England / Died: 1616, Stratford-upon-Avon, England Abstract William Shakespeare (1564 -1616) is the world's most highly-acclaimed literary figure, known for his plays and poems. Shakespeare is celebrated for his comic touch, kaleidoscopic, tightly-structured verse, and genial sense of human nature, manifest in finely-detailed individual characterization. Less widely-recognized, however, is the depth of his engagement with classical and contemporary philosophy, which bears comparison to more obviously learned contemporaries such as Michel de Montaigne (1533 -1592), John Case (c. 1540 -1600), and Justus Lipsius (1547 -1606).
