[edit] Shakespeare
[edit] Characterisation
Shakespeare was able to create characters with a level of self-awareness unprecedented in the literature that preceded him. A prime example is Prince Hamlet, a melancholic XXXXX given to meditations on life and death. Hamlet's antithesis (and, for many critics, Shakespeare's best creation after the Prince of Denmark) is the life-loving Sir John Falstaff, Prince Hal's mentor in Henry IV, Parts I and II. In The Merchant of Venice, Shakespeare was able to make an audience feel sympathy for the most vilified character in the play, the money-lending Jew Shylock, and in Macbeth the audience even feels sympathy for a cold-blooded murderer.
