     William Shakespeare was born in 1564 at Stratford-on-Avon in England. At that time Elizabeth I had been
Queen for years.
     We do not know much about Shakespear's life. However, we do know that his father was a shopkeeper
and that his mother was the daughter of a farmer. William went to Stratford Grammar School, where he learnt
Latin, scripture and mathematics.
     When he left school, William was employed by his father. He married a local girl, Anne Hatheway, when
he was eighteen. Three years later he left Stratford and went to London.

During the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries the London district of Southwark was prosperous (繁荣), and a very important and far-reaching development was taking place at Bankside, an area situated just beside the church now known as Southwark Cathedral. The Rose Theatre, the Swan, the Hope Playhouse and Bear Garden were set up here along with the famous Globe Theatre, in which Shakespeare acted.

　　William Shakespeare is commemorated (纪念) in Southwark Cathedral today by the modern memorial window in the south aisle. The window was designed by Christopher Webb in 1954, after an earlier window had been destroyed in the war, and describes characters from Shakespeare's plays. Below it is a figure of Shakespeare, carved (雕刻) by Henry McCarthy in 1992, set against a background of seventeenth-century Southwark in relief (浮雕), showing the Globe Theatre, Winchester Palace and the Tower of St. Saviour's Church. This memorial was provided by public support and was dedicated (奉献) in 1911, and every year a birthday service, attended by many great actors and actresses, is　held here in honour of Shakespeare's genius. Shakespeare's brother Edmund was buried here in 1607, and, although the position of Edmund's grave is unknown, he is commemorated by an inscribed (刻写) stone.
