Research Paper for ENG 102 FALL  2020

William Shakespeare is considered the greatest writer of the English language. He wrote 39 plays, 154 sonnets, and two narrative poems. He attended elementary school but there is no record that he attended school after that. There is no record that he ever left England, yet his plays often take place in counties outside of England. He died at the age of 52, a very young age for an accomplished playwright.
