No one changes history. Shakespeare was an important figure and his works became an influential part of the development of the English language. The publication of the plays and sonnets caused an increase in literacy. Shakespeare's plays, Johnson's dictionary, and the King James Bible were the three important factors in standardizing the English language; before these were published there were 5 major dialects spoken just in England. Shakespeare's historical plays changed the understanding and interpretation of history. Often, the Shakespeare version is more widely accepted than the 'real' version of history.

What recognition did William Shakespeare get for his work?
You mean, I suppose, during his lifetime. Shakespeare was well-known for his writing during his lifetime. One of the best examples of this is in Francis Meres's book Palladis Tamia in 1597, in which he listed all of the best writers in England at that time, and mentioned Shakespeare as a playwright, and as a composer of sonnets and epic poems. One reason we know that Shakespeare made a name for himself was that although the earliest of his plays were published anonymously, after a while the publishers thought it would sell more copies if the plays were attributed to Shakespeare. Later, they started adding Shakespeare's name to stuff that he hadn't written, which shows that his name was a real selling point. Otherwise why try to sell fake Shakespeare plays and poems?

Was shakespare hired as a front man?
This idea is a feature of most theories in which Shakespeare's works were written by someone other than Shakespeare. Since it is obvious that to the world the actor and man from Stratford William Shakespeare is apparently the author of the works which have always been attributed to him, it is only possible that someone else wrote the works if that other person had the real Shakespeare pretend to be the author. Presumably Shakespeare would have accepted this offer if a lot of money came with it. But why would they choose Shakespeare? If they chose him because he was already an established author, then why would the ghost writer write in the style of Shakespeare? And wouldn't Shakespeare himself have continued writing? And, most perplexingly of all, why should the ghost writer do it at all? Why not simply arrange for the plays to be performed or published anonymously?
Who wrote William Shakespeare's plays?
William Shakespeare did. The chances that he did not contribute at least something to all of the plays people attribute to him are infinitesimally small. The evidence is quite clear that: 1. William Shakespeare was a real person who was born and died in Stratford. 2. William Shakespeare from Stratford was a member of the playing company called The Lord Chamberlain's Men and the King's Men and was a close friend with the other members. 3. The plays which were published with Shakespeare's name on them were exclusively associated with the Lord Chamberlain's/ King's Men for as long as he was a member of that company. 4. William Shakespeare was depicted as a writer by those who knew him best within a couple of years of his death. 5. There is no contemporary record of any other person called William Shakespeare who could possibly be mistaken for Shakespeare the writer. 6. Nobody in the history of the world has used the name of a well-known living person as a nom de plume. Some think that Edward de Vere the 17th Earl of Oxford wrote the plays but there is no good reason to think he did and a number of good reasons to think he didn't.
