Abstract Although Shakespeare has been dead for over four centuries, his legacy and his works continue to live on in today’s world. William Shakespeare has gained many followers because of his great storytelling skills and his exceptional way with words.

Shakespeare and his writings are
The human condition is the ongoing balance between ambivalence, good and evil inside people and their environment. This balance and struggle between the three areas affect personal, emotional, spiritual and mental growth.
