=Who was Robert Greene and what impact did he have on=

Shakespeare’s career?
Prepared by Tieg G Robert Greene was a critic and dramatist and is especially known for his cruel and cutting written remarks on the works of Shakespeare, which accuses him of plagiarizing and being stuck up. Many historians think that Robert Greene was jealous, being a fellow dramatist as well, but never really getting much of a career. His work was published after his death and in his writing “Goats-Vvorth of Wit” he cut at Shakespeare’s play writing ability calling Shakespeare a crow. His impact all together was not so much as many influential and successful people loved Shakespeare’s work including the Queen of England and many more English citizens of note. Robert Greene’s impact is not very big although it gives historians questions on what would make Robert Greene say such things about the most beloved playwright in England. There are some speculations as to why but nothing can be ascertained for sure. Robert Greene is a controversial character in the life of Shakespeare and will probably be a interesting topic for historians and Shakespeare fans alike.
