This third edition of Othello offers a completely new introduction by Christina Luckyj, providing readers with a nuanced understanding of early modern theatre and culture, and demonstrating how careful attention to Shakespeare''s language, staging and dramaturgy can open up fresh interpretations of the play.

Esta comedia de notable influencia en la cultura anglosajona y uno de los grandes clásicos de la literatura teatral de todos los tiempos, fue escrita alrededor de 1595, con toda probabilidad por la conmemoración de la boda de Sir Thomas Berkeley y Elisabeth Carey. Narra la historia de cómo durante la boda de Teseo (duque de Atenas) e Hipólita (reina de las amazonas), una compañía teatral representa una obra plagada de desbordante fantasía, sueños, pasión y magia. Todo ello se enriquece con las historias de amor de nobles parejas -Hermia y Lisandro, Dernetrio y Helena-, con cómicos 'indolentes -Ajustado, Membrillo, Borras, Hocico, Hambrón, Flauta...- y fantásticos representantes del sorprendente mundo de las hadas -el rey Oberón y la reina Titania, Puck, Mostaza, Polilla, Telaraña, Chicharillo... Todo un mundo de leyenda, una oda a la imaginación que despunta en cada escena, ensalzando a cada palabra el genio creador del inmortal William Shakespeare.
