Why is shakespeare still so widely read after hundreds of years

~ Shakespeare is timeless for one reason only: No matter what generation reads his plays and poems, he is always challenging. Challenging the reader is the essence of literature and challenging the audience is the essence of drama. Shakespeare accomplishes both.

If you are like me, you may sometimes read Shakespeare and be annoyed that he is difficult to read. But that is what makes him great. When you understand the beauty of his craft, you are truly being challenged as a reader and becoming a better reader. Too many of today's popular authors are not challenging: They are fun and exciting, but ask yourself, When was the last time you read a popular novel that was fun but also challenging?

Which two lines in this excerpt from john keats’s “Ode to Autumn” reflect the theme of growth and maturation
djverab [1.8K]

The poem "Ode to Autumn", written by John Keats in 1819, reflects the theme of growth and maturation in the following lines:

"(...) And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn; hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft the red-breast whistles from a garden-croft; (...) "

In this poem the author wrote about the Autumn's cycle and the life's cycle, using the last prhases of the poem as the declining of the Autumn' season and the ineluctable end of the life. That is the main reason to write about full-grown lambs and the signing of the hedge-crickets, because when winter is coming the harvest is ended and animals have migrated, so the sounds of the animals mentioned in those lines are recovered only when spring comes.

The end of Autumn then, represent the idea of the declining in the life cycle.
