El mercader de Venecia y Como gustéis pertenecen al grupo de las llamadas "comedias románticas" de William Shakespeare. En ellas, con el amor como motor principal de la acción, los protagonistas alcanzan la solucion feliz en un mundo alternativo de fantasia Belmont, en El mercader de Venecia y el bosque de Arden en Como gusteis, no sin antes haber tenido que enfrentarse a obstaculos materiales y humanos, estos ultimos personificados en seres anticomicos y malvados Shylock y Jaime. Pero la variedad de tonos de estas comedias no permite encerrarlas en una sola formula dramatica. El traductor y preparador de esta edicion, Angel Luis Pujante, nos previene en su Introduccion contra cualquier lectura simplista de estas obras, desvelando las ironias, ambiguedades y sutilezas de El mercader de Venecia, asi como el caracter anticonvencional de Como gusteis, en la que, a traves de un excelente ejercicio literario, Shakespeare expresa con gran sabiduria la teatralidad de la vida.
