William Shakespeare, the great English playwright, poet and actor, was born in April 1564, and died on 23 April 1616.

The two monarchs whose lives coincided with his were:

  • Queen Elizabeth I - reigned from 17th November 1558 until her death on 24th March 1603.

This was the Elizabethan Era, sometimes known as The Golden Age.

  • King James I (who was also King James VI of Scotland) reigned in England from 24th March 1603 until his death on 27th March 1625.

His reign is known as the Jacobean era, Jacob being an alternative form of James.
