This edition of The Two Gentlemen of Verona offers a complete consideration of all aspects of the text. It interprets the play less as a contribution to a Renaissance literary debate between love and friendship (the traditional academic view) than as a dramatization of competing kinds of love - a …

Av William Shakespeare, Eugene M. Waith
Inbunden, 1984
2652 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Titus Andronicus was the young Shakespeare's audacious, sporadically brilliant experiment in sensational tragedy. Its horrors are notorious, but its powerful poetry of grief is the work of a true tragic poet. Introducing this edition, E.M. Waith provides a fresh view of the play in its historical …

Av William Shakespeare, Gary Taylor
Inbunden, 1982
1134 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Henry V, the climax of Shakespeare's sequence of English history plays, is an inspiring, often comic celebration of a young warrior-king. But it is also a study of the costly exhilarations of war, and of the penalties as well as the glories of human greatness. Introducing this brilliantly …

The Moor of Venice

Lägg i varukorg
Written at some time between 1602 and 1604, Othello belongs to the period in which Shakespeare's powers as a tragic dramatist were at their peak. On stage, the romantic cast of its story and the remorseless drive of its plotting, combined with operatic extravagance of its emotion and the swelling …

Av William Shakespeare, Peter Holland
Inbunden, 1995

Inbunden, 1990

The Oxford Shakespeare: The Comedy of Errors
Av William Shakespeare, Charles Whitworth
