What was Shakespeare's attitude?

Answer 1

This is a difficult question. It's very like asking about Shakespeare's personality, about which we know nothing. Did Shakespeare reveal his personal views in his plays? Certainly not. We cannot conclude that Shakespeare was a vampire because he has Hamlet say, "Now I could drink hot blood". The fact that Shakespeare was able to create such a broad variety of plausible characters does show that he had tolerance of and empathy for all kinds of different people.
