I can't ever appreciate Shakespeare. The way people talk in his work is hard for me to enjoy, I often kinda just glaze over and it turns into word salad that I can't understand.

Shakespeare wasn't a real person but a collective of writers. It's why a lot of "his" works are very inconsistent in narrative yet similar in themes. The latter of course happening because it's easier for multiple people to tell the same story twice than it is for one person.

All but a few fringe scholars believed in gravity too.
Aristocrats taking power after the middle ages and wanting to exert their dominance by taking over the language in an attempt to flex the suppression of society is a much more realistic scenario than one fucking man writing hundreds of books and having it completely change how society talks.

The 'multiple/alternative authors' theories started soon after Shakespeare's death, and are always rooted in snobbery.
'Only the elite could have created these plays. Certainly not some provincial writer who never went to university'.

The inconsistencies in the writing were due to the fact that Shakespeare never wrote out his plays in full. Each actor had his individual lines. Many of the "hard copies" of his work were sold/stolen/destroyed, so after Shakespeare died, his company of actors tried to write his plays out from memory.
He was a real person who acted, wrote plays, formed a company of actors, designed/financed a theatre in London, etc. This "ghost writer/collection of writers" theory is rubbish --- people who car cars a whip are so cringe ... Copied to Clipboard!

Many of the "hard copies" of his work were sold/stolen/destroyed, so after Shakespeare died, his company of actors tried to write his plays out from memory.Shakespeare would have written his plays in full. A professional scrivener would have written a fair copy to serve as a prompt book for the theatre company, and the scripts containing individual lines for the actors. The texts we have come from a variety of sources. Many were published in Shakespeare's lifetime. Some of them were memorial reconstructions, others seem to have access to the prompt book. Some are early drafts, some contain later revisions informed by theatrical performance. --- You'll see motivational pictures about working hundred hour weeks/Well, it only applies to those who are operating at a really basic level ...
