If you read Hamlet, you will see that, apart form the outer shell, he is a very modern antihero. He is the kind of person that will not accept commitments in life. Does that sound as outdated?

but i dont think that it is because of the things
"The issues in his play such as
love, hate, and such,
can still apply today."
that it is there for the school
children to study
but i think that it may contain essential
usages and also great language
that will be good for the vocabulary
of the children
thanks for the comment

Because a. his works are vast and b.it teaches them about the English language. The thing that enables them to communicate in a University setting (and beyond). Shakespeare isn't necessarily a good writer (that's subjective), her may very well be a part of the canon because he's a historically significant writer.

Because the general consensus among literary scholars is that they are great works that one can learn a lot from....

I studied Shakespeare's dramas at Senior school. It's great. It has taught us about love and life.
