The quiz includes a large number of different questions regarding the life and works of William Shakespeare - the most written-about author in the history of Western civilization. This is renowned as the English playwright and poet whose body of works is considered the greatest in history of English Renaissance literature.
Shakespeare wrote plays and poems that capture the complete range of human emotion and conflict. Among them were 17 comedies, 10 histories and 10 tragedies. The most famous among his  tragedies are Hamlet, Othello, and King Lear while his best-known poems are The Sonnets, first published in 1609. His late comedies are considered romances.
Present copies of Shakespeare’s works have, in some cases, been reconstructed in part from scripts written down by various members of an acting company who performed particular roles. His plays, like those of many of the actors who also were playwrights, belonged to the acting company. The performance, rather than the script, was what concerned the author, for that was how his play would become popular.
