LOL! Open a history book. Any one will do. Shakespeare's plays, even the tragedies, had a hefty dose of romanticism to them and glossed over what life was really like. They were all candy-coated daytime soaps of their day that were meant to take people away from the horror of their lives (they were written for the illiterate--really, really illiterate-- masses of the day). Today, practically everybody lives a dream compared to anything in the Middle Ages, so naturally, they want to be taken away to the gloom.
