Lol at the people who think Chinese people ripped it off Shakespeare. Lol at people who think wikipedia isn't reliable. Also, many types of stories just follow almost the same exact plotlines just by chance because of how human's enjoy stories. That's why there's the hero's journey monomyth out there. And use wikipedia to see what it is o.o http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monomyth

I'm pretty sure it's right in this case regarding which came first.

Yeah right. Have you BEEN to the Tang Dynasty? It's a relatively avant-garde institution as far as I'm concerned.

The Tang Dynasty didn't even invent Tang.

This is horseshit.

This is just terrible. Take an old-fashioned story and add the internet + teen speak = the OP. And then there's a guy who's trying to argue when a well-documented dynasty existed.

Have you even bothered to look it up yourself? The Tang dynasty predates Shakespeare. How much proof do you need?

Still going to claim that the Shakespeare came before the Tang Dynasty?

Tang Dynasty - 618-907 AD (Dark Ages in Europe)
Shakespeare - died 1616 (after the Dark Ages obviously).

After the Tang Dynasty there are still like 9 or 10 other Chinese dynasties to go and if the Tang was after Shakespeare then we can't have gotten through all them in time for the Boxer Rebellion and whatever in the early 1900s.

Right there. Some people are really dumb.
No dough, no go. And no mercy.

Add in some random flames and not so subtle solicitations for cybering, and this thread could serve as a representation of discourse over the internet in general.
