Dating Shakespeare

In this modern world, with our instantanious communication, people's opinions and ideas can be shared with no time at all. If there is some schandal or movement starting, everyone knows about it. This was no the case in Shakespeare's time. It is because of this that plays and the like were so important. They served as a common medium for people to share their ideas and opinions. Funny enough, my date last night talked about this. He said that this is why Shakespeare's plays are so interesting to him. He said he likes to read them for the surface layer with the plot and characters that are entertaining, but he also likes to read deeper and find the issues and hidden themes that Shakespeare discusses as well. It was also really cool for me to see that you can run into Shakespeare everywhere, even on a casual Friday night date. Haha, I wonder if being able to talk Shakespeare made me more attractive?? :)
