He was, is, and probably always will be the best. So why the fuck are you reading anything else? Just read him over and over and over. Reading anything else is meaningless.

Volpone then The Alchemist, then whatever else you want.

Also, read John Fletcher. He collaborated with Shakespeare on a few of his plays. His play The Double Marriage is one of my favorites..

>Ben Jonson is the superior playwright, nerds.

He may have been the better playwright, but he wasn't the better poet.

>“Self-love, my liege, is not so vile a sin, as self-neglecting.”

What did he mean by this?

>_______ is better than Shakespeare
Plebs actually believe this.

If Shakespeare was, in fact, one person, then he is definitely the single greatest contributor to literature in the history of the world.

Let's just say his literary prowess is pretty much unfuckwittable.
