The trajekt love of william shakespeare

William shakespeare is known for one of the greatest writers at his time. And the reason

of his success was his life hard experience. He took those experiences and emotion and put it into

his writing. That's why his writing feels real, deep and it effects the person that is reading it

because of how true and deep it is. And his writing can also relate to his life, by reading his work

you can know what kind of life he had and how hard it was on him. So William Shakespeare's

personal tragedies is one of the things that affected his life such as how losing his daughter

influenced his writing styles in which most of his stories, poems, and plays are about tragic love

as shown in Romeo and Juliet and sonnet 130 that show that love can live forever even after

death.

“William Shakespeare, also known as the "Bard of Avon," is often called England's

national poet and considered the greatest dramatist of all time.” so william shakespeare is known

as bard of avon. And was called england’s national poet and was considered the greatest

dramatist of all time. Also “Shakespeare's works are known throughout the world, but his

personal life is shrouded in mystery.” so he was known because of his work but his life was full

of mysteries so no one really knew him in person.

Some interesting facts about william shakespeare was an english playwright, actor, and

poet, he was baptized on april, 26, 1564 to april 3, 1616, he was Born in Stratford upon Avon,
 Gerges 2

England, and “he was an important member of the Lord Chamberlain’s Men company of

theatrical players from roughly 1594 onward.” so he was part of other things he didn't just do

writing he was involved in other things. But mostly he was popular for his writing.“William was

the third child of John Shakespeare, and the other two were is sister one was called joan and

judith. And three younger brothers Gilbert, Richard and Edmund.” “he most likely attended the

King's New School, in Stratford, which taught reading, writing and the classics” this could be

where he got his skills from or where he could have discovered that he was talented in writing.

“William Shakespeare married ​Anne Hathaway​ on November 28, 1582, in Worcester, in

Canterbury Province.”“William was 18 and Anne was 26, and, as it turns out, pregnant. Their

first child, a daughter they named Susanna, was born on May 26, 1583. Two years later, on

February 2, 1585, twins Hamnet and Judith were born. Hamnet later died of unknown causes at

age 11.” so it looks like he had a hard life because of his son’s death. And all of these are facts

about his life.

William shakespeare “All that can be deduced is that, in his 20 years as a playwright,

Shakespeare wrote plays that capture the complete range of human emotion and conflict.” one of

the most important things about william shakespeare was the way he writes. And the way he

wrote plays it made the people think about their emotions and feelings. And “from about 1590 to

1613, he wrote a total of 37 plays revolving around several main themes: histories, tragedies,

comedies and tragicomedies”. So he wrote 37 plays and they weren't just about one theme. It was

different he used histories, tragedies, comedies and tragicomedies. So the he wasn't famous

because he can wright good but because he can use several different themes in his plays that he

wrote.
 Gerges 3

So “the works of ​William Shakespeare​ have been performed in countless hamlets, villages,

cities and metropolises for more than 400 years”. So his work was so popular to the point that it

was played in different villages, cities and metropolises for more than 400 years. And it's still

popular until now there is still people who loves shakespeare plays. So he might be dead but he

still lives on through his writings and plays. but through all of that success his personal life is

somewhat a mystery. “there are two primary sources that provide historians with a basic outline

of his life. One source is his work — the plays, poems and sonnets — and the other is official

documentation such as church and court records.” so people know him by his work which is the

plays, poems, and sonnets. And the other way is official documentation such as church and court

records. That's why there is a big part of his life that remains a mystery we don't know who he

really is in person.

William shakespeare has a lot of work but some of his popular work. william shakespeare

first plays were mostly histories themed. “​Henry VI​ ​(Parts I, II and III)​, ​Richard II ​and ​Henry V

dramatize”. These plays are one of the the most popular plays he is known for.

“Shakespeare also wrote several comedies during his early period: the witty romance ​A

Midsummer Night's Dream​, the romantic ​Merchant of Venice,​ the wit and wordplay of ​Much Ado

About Nothing​, the charming ​As You Like It a​ nd ​Twelfth Night.” so t​ hese are the romance stories

that he wrote.“Other plays written before 1600 include ​Titus Andronicus​, ​The Comedy of Errors​,

The Two Gentlemen of Verona,​ ​The Taming of the Shrew​, ​Love’s Labour’s Lost,​ ​King John,​ ​ The

Merry Wives of Windsor and Henry V​.” “William Shakespeare's later period, after 1600, that he

wrote the tragedies ​Hamlet,​ ​Othello​, ​King Lear ​and ​Macbeth​.” And the most famous one out of

those is hamlet. All of these are his work and there is still more.

But “In William Shakespeare's final period, he wrote several tragicomedies. Among

these are ​Cymbeline​, ​The Winter's Tale a​ nd ​The Tempest​. Though graver in tone than the

comedies, they are not the dark tragedies of ​King Lear​ or ​Macbeth​ because they end with

reconciliation and forgiveness.” so in his final period he wrote about sad things and and about

forgiveness. And that is interesting because we don't know lot about his life. And why did he

write about forgiveness why not about being happy or sad that he is going to leave this world but

no he wrote about forgiveness.

About william shakespeare writing about tragic love was in one of his work romeo and

juliet and sonnet 130. So one of william shakespeare's popular plays and story is romeo and

juliet its a love story but at the end of the story they die. This relate to william shakespeare that

his loved one was lost from him it’s the same thing. Where romeo and juliet loved each other but

at the end they died and that love died with them.william shakespeare didn't just wright plays he

also wrote poems. One of his famous poems is sonnet 130 which is “ my mistress eyes is nothing

like the sun”. And this poem is a love poem so it can relate to romeo and juliet's play. So romeo

and juliet is a love story but that love was lost because of their death. And that can relate to

william shakespeare because he loved his son like how romeo and juliet loved each other. But

his son died like how romeo and juliet love died because they were both dead. But he wrote

romeo and juliet because he wants to show us that love can live forever like there love never

dies. Even if you die that love can live on in people’s hearts.

That could be why william shakespeare's romance or love storys can touch people’s heart.

Because he propale put. The love and the hard experience of his son into his writing so that's

why his writing feels really, deep and can affect the reader emotionally. So william shakespeare's
 Gerges 5

experiences and losses brought his writing game to another level. Because most writers write

with their writing skills. But william shakespeare writes with his experience, writing skills and

emotions. But the point that william shakespeare is trying to make is love never dies no matter

what is the case as he shows us with his plays, writings and poems.

Romeo and juliet story is one of the most popular stories written by william shakespeare

Because of how deep it is. The way it ends is trajekt love but how it escalated to trajekt love. So

there was two families that hated each other and they would also fight. One family had a son

whose name is romeo and the other had a girl named juliet. These two families hated each other

but one day romeo and juliet meet at a party. Then they talked fell in love together and

eventually they romeo found out what juliet family is and juliet found out who romeo family is.

But that didn't stop them from loving each other and eventually the families found out and they

were upset and tried to separate them from each other. But there love was too strong to separate

them then the two families went into war with each other because of them two.

Then eventually the families tried to separate them by taking juliet away but her love was

too strong that she couldn't live without romeo in her life. So she planned a escape plan so she

could go back to him but she couldn't tell romeo because she wasn't able to see him. And they

both had different plans to save each other. Juliet plan was to drink a something that puts her to

sleep so her family think that she is dead and when they make a funeral for her she can escape.

But romeo didn't know that and went to her to tell her parents that they cannot be separated and

that they love each other. Then they told him that she committed suicide because of him then he

was so sad and depressed. Then the day of her funeral he went to her at the end and told her that

he loves her and then killed himself on her body. Then the time of the drink that juliet took ran
 Gerges 6

out and when she woke up. She saw rome dead on her body and she cried so hard and she

decided that she couldn't live without him. Then she killed herself to be with him in heaven so

death couldn't separate there love from each other. And because of what happened the two

families made peace to love each other and not hate eachother so thing like that don't happen

again. That's why it was tragic love because death could not separate romeo and juliet. And it

took their death to get the families to understand that violence is not the answer and they have to

learn how to live together so no one else have to die like that.

So romeo sees love in a different way than everyone else he sees it as something hard to go

through. Because he doesn't want his love to be broken like love i a good and a beautiful thing.

But once the other one break your heart it becomes the hardest thing to come back from thats

how romeo saw love. That why he fought so hard for her love for juliet and killed himself when

he thought that she died. “Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs; being purged, a fire

sparkling in lovers’ eyes; being vexed a sea nourished with loving tears: what is it else?a

madness most discreet, a choking gall, and a preserving sweet.” (shakespeare romeo and juliet

page 1260, line 185 to 190) so her romeo explains that love is something bad and good. Because

of how much damage it can cause you if the person you love break it. And in his situation that

was most likely to happen because of their families hating each other. And they tried to separate

their love from each other and that was going to be so painful for him. But if he succeeded and

there love stay strong and became together that love will turn into something beautiful and good.

And in romeo's situation when they tier to separate them he couldn't stand breaking his heart so

he went after juliet. And when he thought that she died he killed himself to spare himself from

the pain of a broken heart.

 Gerges 7

So one of romeo's decision to chose love over life is at the end when he found out that the

love of his life is dead.“How oft when men are at the point of death have they been merry, which

their keeper called a light’ning before death! O , how may i call this a light’ning?.” ( shakespeare

romeo and juliet page 1291, 1292 act 5 scene 3 line 86 to 93) so he asked himself that is your life

worth living without juliet love. And he decided to kill himself so that they can be together and

their love would live forever. So romeo traded his life for love when it came to love or life. And

when juliet woke up and found out what he did she couldn't live alone and she chose the same

choice as rome which is love over life and they both died but their love lives forever together.

And these choices between the both of them is through the whole story like going against their

families because their love is stronger than their families hate for each other.

My mistress eyes are nothing like the sun by william shakespeare. “My mistress' eyes are

nothing like the sun”. So william shakespeare is a very talented, deep and simple writer that

could be because he had a rough life. But in this quote he says that his mistress eyes are nothing

like the son. And that is his way of saying that his mistress have beautiful eyes. Because all the

other people say that there mistress eyes is like the sun but he didn't say that because if her eyes

are like the sun then you can't look at it. But if her eyes are not like the sun then he can see how

beautiful her eyes. So william shakespeare says things that are true that his mistress eyes doesn't

look like the sun. and that's how he uses renaissance because he is not saying things that are not

true like my mistress eyes look like the sun that is impossible. But shakespeare says that it

doesn't look like the sun because that is the truth. And it makes more since because if you look at

the sun you are going to hurt your eyes. So that means that her eyes look bad because if her eyes

is like the sun then your eyes are going to get hurt from how bad it looks. But if it doesn't look
 Gerges 8

like the sun then you can look at her eyes and see how beautiful they are. “I love to hear her

speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound”. Her he is comparing her

voice to music. So he is saying that yes music is better than her voice but her voice is close to the

music beautiful sound. So shakespeare saying that yes her voice is not as good as the music but

her voice is so beautiful it's almost on the musics level. So her he shows how beautiful her voice

is but he is being really that he said that her voice is close to how music sound.

There is a similarity in romeo and juliet and sonnet 130 that the way they look at love is

different. Like the way william shakespeare describes love in romeo and juliet and sonnet 130 is

similar. Like they are both trajekt love because shakespeare describes love in a real way like

things that people will actually do. So in romeo and juliet they gave up their lives for love and

that is called tragic love. And sonnet 130 is the same like william shakespeare saied “My

mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun”. In william shakespeare's eyes this is the true language of

love is that telling them the truth instead of lying to them that shows how much you love them.

So instead of saying that your eyes look like the sun he said that your eyes looks nothing like the

sun. and that is the truth like if her eyes looks like the sun then he wouldn't be able to look at her

but he said that her eyes look nothing like the sun because he can look at her eyes and fall in love

with her so thats why its tragic love because you are saying the truth but that truth is the real

love.

So in romeo and juliet it ended in a trajekt love and sonnet 130 can relate to romeo and

juliet because william shakespeare uses tragic love in both of them. And the that tragic love can

relate to william shakespeare in his life because when his son died. That was a tragic love part in

william shakespeare's life because he loved his son so much and his son died at the age 11 so he
 Gerges 9

was young a lost of a son is one of the hardest love you can lose in your life. It’s the same thing

as romeo and juliet that they loved each other so much that when they were getting separated

they killed themselves to be together. And that what william shakespeare wanted to do when he

lost his son but he couldn't do it because he can't leave his other daughter alone in a big world

without a father. That put him in so much more pain because he has top live with that broken

love for his 11 year old boy that died.
