Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shakespeare's Wit and Humour The pre-eminence of Shakespeare as a drama tist and poet is due no less to his astonishing versatility than to the greatness of his powers. N 0 other dramatic author has shown so wide a range of genius. Ancient Greece had poets who never have been surpassed in tragedy, but none who, like the author of Macbeth, Othello, Henry IV, As You Like It, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and The Tempest, exhibited supreme mastery alike in tragedy, comedy, and the realm of fancy. Shakespeare touched with equal ease the sub lime and the ridiculous, his love of fun and in finite command of wit and humour being no less remarkable than his poetic fancy, profound insight into human nature, and matchless gifts of expression.

Attracted to each other, the maddeningly skeptical Beatrice and Benedick are dead-locked in a lively war of words until their friends hatch a plot to unite them. The mutually devoted Hero and Claudio, on the other hand, all too quickly fall victim to a malicious plot to part them. Near-fatal complications ensue, but with the help of the hilarious Constable Dogberry and his confederates, the lovers are ultimately united.First presented in 1598, Much Ado About Nothing is one of Shakespeare's last comedies.
