How will Shakespeare be remembered in the future?
It is difficult to say. Attitudes toward Shakespeare have changed a number of times in the 450 years since he was born, and could change again. Over the 20th century the attitude called "bardolatry" has largely faded away. Shakespeare's work continues however to be viewed as enormously significant and his plays continue to be more performed than those of any other playwright. There is perhaps a growing distrust of poetic or elevated language in some quarters which may result in people being afraid of actually learning about the plays and only knowing a sketchy caricature of Shakespeare's life and work.
What do critics say about hamlet?
They sympathise with him; they understand his torment, his dilemma and they feel extremely sorry when he dies. Some people can also judge him more severely for his hesitations and for the pain he causes to the people he loves and who love him.
Was Shakespeare popular in his day?
Shakespeare's plays have always enjoyed a certain amount of popularity. They were very successful in the Elizabethan and Jacobean theatre for which they were written. In the Restoration period they were thought of as old-fashioned, and in the eighteenth century they survived largely in adaptations which made them conform to the then current style. The original plays were thought of as crude. The Romantics of the nineteenth century began to idolize Shakespeare, creating what Bernard Shaw called Bardolatry. Over the century, producers turned more and more to the original scripts. In both the twentieth and twenty-first century Shakespeare's plays remain enormously popular, being constantly performed and appreciated everywhere in the world.
What did people of Shakespeares time think of him?
Apparently people thought that he was crazy. In view of this, they mainly avoided and mocked both him and his work. I don't know where this comes from: in fact the evidence (such as Francis Meres's Palladis Tamia) suggests that he was well-respected and treated as such. The Puritans (religious fanatics) thought that plays were a sin. When they came to power they closed the theatre down.
