>From a Shakespeare final exam:

"One of the many important things Shakespeare puts into his plays is
theme.  They are generally repetitive throughout different performances.
This is due to the fact that people as a society were not around during
the Shakespearean Era, therefore, no individual can be sure what his
thinking methods were. This leaves more room for interpretation."
