Escribiré como ejemplo una versión sencilla de la biografía
de William Shakespeare, incluidos los pasos para escribir una biografía sencilla en inglés.
Primero: Información básica sobre la fecha de nacimiento y
sus padres
William
Shakespeare was born in April of 1564. He was born in the village of
Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire, England. His father, John Shakespeare,
came from a family of yeomen and his mother, Mary Arden, came from an ancient
family of landed gentry. The whole family was Anglican. The family's financial
situation was well off.
Segundo: Información acerca de la juventud y primeras etapas
de educación de la persona a quien se escribe la biografía
Not much
information is known about Shakespeare's youth, although undoubtedly he was
educated in the local school, where he studied Latin and Greek, among other
subjects, during a school day that often lasted from dawn to dusk.
Tercero: Información acerca de su vida privada, matrimonio e
hijos
Shakespeare was married to Anne Hathaway in 1582, when he was 18. The exact wedding date is uncertain,
but the marriage certificate was issued on November 27,1582. Anne was the
daughter of a respected yeoman farmer. William and Anne had their first child,
Susanna, in May of 1583. This was followed by the birth of twins, Hamnet and
Judith, in January of 1585. Most historians believe that Shakespeare was not
often around his family in Stratford after that because historical records show
him in London during the following years.
Cuarto: Información sobre su legado, vida professional y
trascendencia.
The first written reference to
Shakespeare's existence in London occurred in 1592, when Shakespeare was in his
late twenties. He seems to have been fairly well established in the theatre by
that point, since the reference, written by another playwright, hints of
jealousy at Shakespeare's success.
