WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, página 16 de 166

"Henry VI Part III" is the third of William Shakespeare's plays set during the lifetime of King Henry VI of England, and prepares the ground for one of his best-known and most controversial plays: "the tragedy of King Richard III" (Richard III of England). It follows on from "Henry VI, part 1" and "Henry VI, part 2".

William Shakespeare (1564-1616), el poeta de Stratford-on-Ayon, es quizás el dramaturgo más importante de todos los tiempos. Las notas sobresalientes de su teatro son: su magistral dominio de la técnica teatral, el poder de sus personajes y una probada objetividad, desligada de todo sentimentalismo. En este libro se incluyen sus obras: Romeo y Julieta, Julio Cesar, Hamlet, Otelo, Macbeth y el Rey Lear.

This updated edition offers a strongly theatrical perspective on the origins of Shakespeare's The First Part of King Henry IV and the history of its interpretation. The introduction clarifies the play's surprising, de-centred dramatic structure, questioning the dominant assumption that the drama focuses on the education of Prince Hal. It calls attention to the effects of civil war upon a broad range of relationships. Falstaff's unpredictable vitality is explored, together with important contemporary values of honour, friendship, festivity and reformation. Extensive lexical glosses of obscure, ambiguous or archaic meanings make the rich wordplay accessible. The notes also provide a thorough commentary on Shakespeare's transformation of his sources (particularly Holinshed's Chronicles) and suggest alternative stagings. This updated edition contains a new introductory section by Katharine A. Craik, which describes recent stage, film and critical interpretations, and an updated reading list.

An ageing king makes a capricious decision to divide his realm among his three daughters according to the love they express for him. When the youngest daughter refuses to take part in this charade, she is banished, leaving the king dependent on her manipulative and untrustworthy sisters. In the scheming and recriminations that follow, not only does the king''s own sanity crumble, but the stability of the realm itself is also threatened.

Un gioco d'amore che si trasforma, per un fato avverso, in morte, un dramma moderno e struggente che racconta le scelte estreme a cui un sentimento puro, incontrollato e incorruttibile può arrivare. Questa tragedia, tra le più belle di Shakespeare, non soltanto costituisce una vetta altissima della vasta produzione del drammaturgo inglese, ma è entrata con forza a far parte del nostro patrimonio letterario. Oltre alla nuova traduzione, questa edizione offre un'introduzione - che contestualizza la figura di Shakespeare e la sua tragedia più celebre - e un apparato di note filologiche e storiche.

Ebook con un sumario dinámico y detallado: Macbeth, una de las obras más conocidas de William Shakespeare, es una tragedia en cinco actos, escrita en prosa y en verso, que fue compuesta probablemente hacia 1606 y estrenada poco despues. Macbeth es una tragedia acerca de la traicion y la ambicion desmedida. No hay seguridad absoluta de que la tragedia sea en su totalidad obra de Shakespeare, ya que algunos afirman que ciertos pasajes podrian ser adiciones posteriores del dramaturgo Thomas Middleton, cuya obra La bruja tiene multiples afinidades con Macbeth. La obra esta libremente basada en el relato de la vida de un personaje historico, Macbeth, que fue rey de los escoceses entre 1040 y 1057. La fuente principal de Shakespeare para esta tragedia fueron las Cronicas de Raphael Holinshed, obra de la que extrajo tambien los argumentos de sus obras historicas. Holinshed se baso a su vez en Historia Gentis Scotorum (Historia de los escoceses), obra escrita en latin por el autor escoces Hector Boece e impresa por primera vez en Paris en 1527. Para agradar a su mecenas, el rey Jacobo V de Escocia, Boece habia oscurecido deliberadamente la figura de Macbeth, con el fin de exaltar a un hipotetico antepasado del rey, Banquo.
