Der Begriff Fabel lässt sich auf das lateinische Wort fabula zurückführen, was soviel wie Geschichte, Erzählung, Gespräch bedeutet.
Heute bezeichnet der Begriff die typische Art der Tierdichtung in Vers oder Prosa, in der eine allgemein anerkannte Wahrheit steckt, die als ein moralischer Lehrsatz oder eine praktische Lebensweisheit anhand einer Pointe ausgesprochen wird.

The first English plays – written and performed in the 14th century – told religious stories and took place in churches. In the following two centuries, under the influence of the Renaissance, the topics and performance of plays changed. It is the period marking the transition from the medieval to the modern world. Renaissance plays no longer dealt with religious subjects. In London, in the 1570s the first institutionalized public playhouses, The Rose and The Theatre, were built. SHAKESPEARE, together with some actors, had a playhouse built on the south bank of the Thames: the Globe Theatre, which opened in 1599. The Elizabethan theatre was a public place open to people of all social classes, because everybody could afford the price for standing-room. Consequently, the play had to meet the expectations of all classes.
