Shakespeare

& Shakespeare's

sonnets

We don't know exactly when Shakespeare was born, but 23rd April is generally celebrated as his birthday (and the day he died). He was born into a wealthy family in around 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon and when he was 18 years old he married Anne Hathaway. Some time after this, he travelled to London where he became very successful in the theatre as an actor and writer. He had his own company of actors who performed at the Globe Theatre. We know very little about his personal life, but we do have copies of the 36 plays and the many poems which he wrote.

Shakespeare started writing the sonnets in 1593 and there are 154 sonnets in total. There have been many theories about who the sonnets were written for, but no-one knows for sure. Sonnets 1–126 were all written to a man, so these sonnets are known as the ‘fair youth’ sonnets, and sonnets 127–152 were all written to a woman, the ‘dark lady’. There are many themes in the sonnets, with love, beauty, time and politics often being the subject of the verses.
