William Shakespeare's vocabulary and writing rapidly impacted the way people spoke throughout time. Shakespeare was an actor, playwright, and a shareholder ("Playwright, actor & shareholder"). Shakespeare’s work changed how people viewed literature. Shakespeare adventured through less common themes used in his era, such as, tragedy, Titus Andronicus, comedy, The Comedy Of Errors, and history, Henry VI (“William Shakespeare”). William Shakespeare introduced plenty of common phrases such as, "in a pickle", "Fashionable", "wild goose chase" ("William Shakespeare").
