THE STORY<br />
Shakespeare was an English poet, considered the most<br />
important writer of the English language. With a lot of works in its<br />
history. One of the most famous was "Romeo and Juliet".<br />
Remembered at all times. He died in 1616. In that same year, a<br />
similar writer also dies, but this time of Spanish speech, which was<br />
recognized by the novels he wrote, Miguel de Cervantes and his<br />
most renowned work Don Quixote.<br />
POINT OF VIEW<br />
According to the BBC news article, Shakespeare<br />
overshadowed Cervantes despite his worldwide recognition.<br />
This due to the commemoration that is done to both writers.<br />
But has become popular the recognition of Shakespeare in<br />
his festival “Shakespeare live”, leaving at side the recognition<br />
of Cervantes to his works and the contribution he has made<br />
in literature. For many years the works of Shakespeare have<br />
been read and reproduced in more than 1000 and his<br />
romantic phrases or paragraphs quoted in many more<br />
movies. On the contrary, the writings of Cervantes, have not<br />
been successful in the cinema. This is because the content of<br />
his famous work Don Quixote is more dense than other<br />
books, which makes less easy to take it to the cinema than<br />
the counterpart.<br />
CONCLUSION<br />
With the above, I can say that although Cervantes is also<br />
recognized for his great works, he can not be as great as<br />
Shakespeare, I prefer Shakespeare who had great and<br />
unique ways of expressing his feelings and thoughts in his<br />
works and also transmit them to the public that reads it,<br />
follows it and remembers it during all these years. Two brilliant<br />
writers, but certainly one bigger and better remembered<br />
than the other. Yes it's correct! Shakespeare eclipsed<br />
Cervantes.
