The most distinctive achievement of Elizabethan literature is the drama. It had its origins in native folk tales and culture. In England in the Middle Ages the tradition had religious plays as the most popular. By the end of the fifteenth century plays that depicted the ordinary lives of people began to appear, little by little did they begin to integrate secular themes as well. The great playwrights of the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries time combined the classical dramatic theory with the folk and popular tradition. Shakespeare is indeed crucial to the development of English drama.
