B) William Wordsworth
C) William Shakespeare
D) Emily Dickinson

Answer 1

That would be option C.

Answer 2

The poet and dramatist who wrote renowned sonnets and plays like Hamlet, Macbeth, and Romeo and Juliet is William Shakespeare. Please mention Option C, William Shakespeare, in your final answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The great poet who wrote sonnets, and also a dramatist who wrote some of the world's best plays including Hamlet, Macbeth, and Romeo and Juliet is William Shakespeare. He was a significant figure during the 16th and 17th centuries and a paramount contributor to English literature and theatre.

Though William Wordsworth was a notable Romantic poet and part of the 'Big Six' of the Romantic-era authors, his works were distinct from the dramatic genre that Shakespeare mastered. Works such as The World Is Too Much with Us are attributed to Wordsworth's poetic brilliance during the Romantic Era.

However, his contributions do not cross into the dramatic terrain where Shakespeare's legacy lies. Similarly, Charles Dickens, Emily Dickinson, and the others mentioned also made significant contributions to literature, but the correct option that fits the description in the question is William Shakespeare. Therefore, please mention Option C in your final answer.
