  It depends. Some argue that Shakespeare didn't invent any new plot or narrative structures. Others argue that all western philosophical work on ethics after greeks is in its essence just commentary to the new testament. From my perspective not much new was said about ontology, monotheism and logic of truth after https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parmenides https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parmenides I am no expert but just by extrapolation - if i see a new idea, chances are it is new only from my not educated enough perspective. This is not about science, I imply the discussion is about fiction, stories and philosophy.
