How old were you when you realized that Shakespeare was a meme writer and that his works were never meant to be taken seriously!

Ya’ll sleeping on Cervantes. Clearly the patrician choice.

[Anonymous No.12981207]

Shakespeare is a total meme. a 7-8/10 writer for sure, don't get me wrong, but the fact that western culture worships a fucking PLAYWRIGHT as the epitome of classical literature is sickening, never mind that he would have written YA fiction if he were alive today, judging by most of his work

>Shakespeare was better than Marlowe
What a dunce. If Marlowe would have lived as long as Shakespeare he would have been far more regarded than Shakespeare.

[Anonymous No.12981352]

>>12981335
Of course I typed it in English. It's the lingua franca just as Latin and French were back in the day. Like when Newton wrote his Principia in Latin

[Anonymous No.12981360]

>>12981332
Yes, I did say English was the lingua franca
>What is 4chan?
>4chan is a simple image-based bulletin board where anyone can post comments and share images. 4chan's collaborative-community format was inspired by one of the most popular forums in Japan, Futaba Channel. Different boards are dedicated to different topics, from Japanese anime, manga, and culture to videogames, music, and photography. Users do not need to register an account before participating in the community.

You confound lingua franca with lingua de facto. As opposed to what? An official language?

[Anonymous No.12981402]

>>12981380
It's simply a reality that this site is international nowadays. Foreigners use English to communicate between themselves. There's also a board dedicated to sharing culture and learning languages >>>/int/
Also literature itself is international.
