He may not have been the [[Trope Maker]] or even the [[Ur Example]], but you can bet your bottom dollar that he did it before ''you!'' Whatever great invention, character or plot device you come up with, Shakespeare is always the guy who has already done it and done it better than you could ever hope to. Note that he wasn't the ''first'' to use a lot of these conventions, however he's ''the'' earliest writer most people know who used ''so many'' of them. |
