You know perfectly well that Shakespeare is just a minor, obscure
dramatist from the dark dungeons of literary history writing in an
English which is only partly intelligible to the speakers of the
modern language. If he weren't force-fed to millions of poor
schoolchildren in that benighted part of the world inhabited by
monolingual speakers of English, he would already have been consigned,
if not to merciful oblivion, so at least to the limbo that is the fate
of all linguistically and culturally uninteresting writers meriting
only second-rate academic interest.
