Yes, from the very start. Shakespeare's contemporaries imitated his more complex characterizations, so there is a noticeable difference between drama written before Shakespeare and that written afterward.

∙ 13y agoWe believe so. There exists a play called The Taming of A Shrew which is similar to Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. It is thought that A Shrew may have been the inspiration for The Shrew. Also, for a number of reasons, it is believed that an earlier version of Hamlet existed, possibly by Kyd, which is called the Ur-Hamlet. This earlier play may have been Shakespeare's main source for Hamlet (although he may have relied directly on Belleforest).
