SHAKESPEARE, 1564-1616.
William Shakespeare, by universal consent the greatest author of England, if not of the world, occupies chronologically a central position in the Elizabethan drama. He was born in 1564 in the good-sized village of Stratford-on-Avon in Warwickshire, near the middle of England, where the level but beautiful country furnished full external stimulus for a poet’s eye and heart. His father, John Shakespeare, who was a general dealer in agricultural products and other commodities, was one of the chief citizens of the village, and during his son’s childhood was chosen an alderman and shortly after mayor, as we should call it.

The best information regarding the date of Romeo and Juliet comes from the title page of the first Quarto, which tells us that the play “hath been often (with great applause) plaid publiquely, by the right Honourable the L. of Hunsdon his servants.”
This reference would indicate that the play was composed no later than 1596, because Hunsdon’s acting troupe went by a different name after this date. Moreover, “[m]any critics have placed it as early as 1591, on account of the Nurse’s reference in I.iii.22 to the earthquake of eleven years before, identifying this with an earthquake felt in England in 1580″ (Neilson, Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, 36). But the earliest performance of Romeo and Juliet actually documented was in 1662, staged by William Davenant, the poet and playwright who insisted that he was Shakespeare’s illegitimate son.
