Like looks on how he portray or think people are portrayed as he did in the play Othello. I would not say he changed the world though cause that comes with a lot all he really did was come up with more words that we did not have.

Changing the world for a good seems like a good way to go. Although I do feel like people by reading will gain a more liberal knowledge and be open minded about everything. Shakespeare plays are based on treason, death, love and it is all about tragedy.

Shakespeare’s words have changed the way we look at things that he is being taught in every language by hundreds what is it? He did more than just write plays but he has these characters individuals that need help and sometimes find it in the wrong person but the go through life changing experinces that either makes us like or dislike them in each one of the plays but why? Because the only way to get real people intrigued use real stories they can relate to minus the sword fighting
