Question #9

I think that Shakespeare is the best example of a Renaissance Man.  A Renaissance Man is a man who basically represented that time period. He represented it with his writings. He had great skills, and became very famous. Even though his writings were depressing and not very happy, he was a great writer. He truly was a Renaissance Man. He wrote many plays and was able to show them off at the Globe Theater. One great example of his writing is, "A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool." In this, you can see his intelligence. Two more are, "Better three hours too soon than a minute too late," and, ""But men are men; the best sometimes forget." He was a great writer, and should be remembered as a very important person in society.
