In Honor of William Shakespeare 致敬莎士比亚

高二(10)班 庄羽怡


When it comes to William Shakespeare, his prominent dramas will come to our minds. However, his experience as a playwright is quite different from other writers, which leaves a strong impression on me.

Owing to his family going bankrupt, he had to drop out at 13. During the following few years, he challenged and attempted at a wide variety of occupations that tied him to the miserable reality tightly.

After that, he arrived in London, a cosmopolitan city. There was no denying that his poor educational background was a barrier to landing a professional job directly. However, on account of a few years of diligent and arduous strife, William Shakespeare became an actor and even published his first play. The play was an overnight success, which made him known to the public as a writer of fantastic plays.

Meanwhile, feeling indifferent to the old school of drama, William Shakespeare revolutionized the vocabulary and plots for the play and sonnets. He kept pushing forward and aroused many a Londoner’s passion about the acting landscape. He is a bright star of the European Renaissance.

Only when running our life meaningfully can we realize that the start point doesn’t necessarily determine the ending height. William Shakespeare is the living evidence that a man can be a hero from zero.

谈到威廉·莎士比亚,首先让我们想到的是他那些著名的戏剧。然而,他与众不同的经历,给我留下了深刻的印象。由于他的家庭破产,他不得不在13岁就辍学。在接下来的几年里,他挑战并尝试各种各样的职业,使他被束缚在悲惨的现实中。之后,他来到了伦敦,他的低学历是获得专业工作的一个障碍。然而,经过几年的艰苦奋斗,威廉·莎士比亚成了演员,甚至发表了他的第一部戏剧。这出戏一夜成名,使他成为了一个荒诞派作家。同时,威廉·莎士比亚对戏剧和十四行诗的作出了革命性的变化。他不断推进,引得伦敦人争相观看。通过他的故事,我意识到起点不一定决定最后的高度,威廉·莎士比亚是活生生的例子,他是欧洲文艺复兴时期的耀眼明星。
