Question:

Doe's shakespeare's work have meaning or was it simply for entertainment?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Of course it has meaning!!

With the possible exception of those pathetic clique books, what book, story, poem, song lyric or play does not have meaning?

The author has a message - that is why we write. Shakespeare not only wrote stories that have tremendous meaning and have been the subject of literally millions of thesis, dissertations, essays and discussions, but he also put so many phrases into our every day speech that it is virtually impossible to count.

My suggestion is to go to the nearest B and N, to the bargain section and buy yourself a nice big Complete Works of Shakespeare for about 15 bucks. Start with page one and read your way through. Obviously you have no understanding of Shakespeare at all. Pax - C
