Furthermore‚ the structure and the script tend to focus too much on the character of Sfarza and this competes with Blake‚ who one thinks is the main hero.

William Blake‚ one of the earliest and greatest figures of Romanticism‚ wrote the "Songs of Innocence and Experience" in the 1790s.

Shakespeare’s greatest‚ and darkest‚ plays. The dominant literary figure of James’s reign was Ben Jonson‚ whose varied and dramatic works followed classical models and was enriched by his worldly‚ peculiarly English wit.
