>Disagree. He is the "greatest" only to those who believe he is the greatest. Who has sampled all the writers that ever were? And how will they be compared across styles and times and other metrics? "The greatest" - a pointless attribution other than as a purely personal, culturally and traditionally subjective opinion.
Well stated! I have read all of Shakespeare’s works and studied them in college. His works given as plays are interesting. I do enjoy James Joyce, but that may be attributed to the Irish in me! :)
