Some people say that Shakespeare took ideas from other authors and rewrote them as his plays, and they're not entirely wrong!
Shakespeare's plays are inspired by classic stories, both real and made-up, from his time and before. He drew inspiration from the history and stories of the Greeks and Romans, from the English people that came before him and even from people who lived in places like Italy and Spain while he lived! He always put his own twist on them, though.
