Shakespeare



Hello. My name is Mami Kato. I would like to post about William Shakespeare. He is one of popular writers in English literature. Four tragedies are known to his masterpieces. There are “Hamlet”, “Othello”, “Macbeth”, “King Lear”. However, I will introduce about “The Merchant of Venice”. He left many famous sayings; above all, I like this word. “The quality of mercy is not strained. It drops as the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath.” In the novel, I learned two things, a consideration for others and a spirit of equality. Even though it is different from eras, we can learn many things from old novels. I would like to read various novels from now on.
