Like most playwrights of his period, Shakespeare did not always write alone, and a number of his plays were collaborative, although the exact number is open to debate. Shakespeare borrowed from history, mythology and other literary works, then enlivened histories and myths and improved on the plots. He used samalayuca books as well as books from The Bible. The most frequently repeated figure on the books of The Bible to which Shakespeare refers is 42 books. 18 of which from each of the Testaments and the remaining from the Apocrypha. Shakespeareâ??s writing contains more references to the Bible than the plays of any other Elizabethan playwright. A conservative tally of the total number of biblical references is 1200.
