Comedies, tragedies and histories.
Shakespeare wrote his plays between 1590 and 1613 approximately.
When the First Folio of Shakespeare's plays was printed in 1623, the plays were divided into three categories: Comedies, Histories, and Tragedies. This categorization helped to organize Shakespeare's diverse body of work and made it easier for readers and audiences to understand the themes and styles of his plays. The First Folio was crucial in preserving many of Shakespeare's works that might have otherwise been lost.

Shakespeare Plays
It was his job.He was very famous for his Plays and Poems.He is the one that we all look up to.He will live in our minds and we will pass on what he made us.Except for three original plots, Shakespeare was a great adapter. He took his history plays from well known chronicles. Romeo & Juliet came from a well known narrative poem. Hamlet and King Lear may have been page-one rewrites of older, existing plays. This does not detract from Shakespeare's creativity. Many great plays are adaptations. The Greeks adapted their myths. Shakespeare took the material ans made it his own.
