Answer: These sources provided Shakespeare primarily with historical information. Moreover, Shakespeare borrowed ideas for the plot from them, and focused on some of the historical figures in his own work.
Explanation:
Not all of Shakespeare's ideas are his own. Sometimes, Shakespeare found inspiration in other sources that he used. This is mainly true for his history plays - plays that are named after monarchs that ruled during a certain time period. <em>Holinshed's Chronicles</em> is believed to have been his primary source for history plays - <em>Henry IV</em> (part I and II),<em> Henry V, Henry VI</em> (all three parts), <em>Henry VIII, Richard II, Richard III</em>, but also for <em>King Lear</em>, <em>Cymbeline</em> and <em>Macbeth</em>. Shakespeare incorporated many Roman figures in his work, such as Julius Caesar, Antony, Cleopatra, etc. While doing so, he mainly relied on <em>Plutarch's</em> work, a text called <em>Parallel Lives</em> that consists of 40 biographies of Greek and Roman leaders.
