Most of Shakespeares great tragedies were written in the years between 1598 and 1607, sometimes called his black period. Shakespeare had a son, called Hamnet, who died at the age of ten in 1596.

Romeo and Juliet, the most famous tragedy of love in all literature, was one of Shakespeares earliest tragedies and it is less complex and philosophical than most of the later tragedies.

Although the monarchy was restored, most of the power was held by Parliament; two parties, the Whigs and the Tories, and a prime minister governed the country.  The spirit of the Restoration was one of reason; society did not want to see again the kind of problems of the first half of the century.
