Only in recent years did scholars start to explore the influence of Shakespeare's family on his plays. William Shakespeare was a family man. He didn't buy large houses or other lavish luxuries in London, where he worked. He bought a big house and invested his money in Stratford, where his family lived. He's a commuter, frequently returning to his home in Stratford from London with a 15h+ single communing journey to see his family. In fact, most of his plays are proved to be written at home. This may change how we see Shakespeare.
