- Summary:
- There's so much we don't know about William Shakespeare. We do know that he was born on St George's Day, 23 April 1564, the same year as Galileo and Marlowe, and died on his birthday in 1616. This is supposed to be an auspicious sign, particularly in the superstitious Elizabethan age. We know that he was born and died in Stratford-upon-Avon and is buried at Holy Trinity church in Stratford-upon-Avon.
