Dramatist upsets nobleman in speech (11)
I believe the answer is:
shakespeare
'dramatist' is the definition.
(I know that Shakespeare has the occupation dramatist)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shakespeare that I've seen before include "No 1 poet" , "English playwright" , "The Bard of Avon" , "Author of Hamlet" , "Playwright and poet, author of 154 sonnets" .)
