Non, non, non et non ! Allez, viens en prison ! On va chanter tous les deux seuls ! Comme des oiseaux en cage ! Et quand tu me demanderas ta bénédiction, je me mettrai à genoux. Pour te demander pardon ? On vivre comma ça. Prier, chanter. Raconter de vieilles histoires et rire aux papillons dorés. On aura tous les potins de la cour par une bande de crétins. On aura de bonnes discussions pour savoir qui perd qui gagne. qui est in ? qui est out ? On prétendra expliquer le mystère des choses. Comme si on était les espions des dieux. On tiendra le coup entre les murs. Même au milieu de cette meute, de toutes ces sectes, de tous ces gangs qui vont et viennent comme la marée sous la lune.

Depuis près de trois cents ans, Le Roi Lear est tenu, d'un consentement quasi unanime, pour la plus douloureuse des pièces de Shakespeare. Si elle frappe ainsi l'imagination, c'est à cause de la mort imméritée de Cordélia, et en partie parce qu'elle nous oblige à subir un monde en proie à une telle sauvagerie ; mais le choc le plus rude est de voir s'imposer à nous, inévitablement, cette terrifiante certitude que tôt ou tard, un homme doit affronter les conséquences atterrantes de ses propres crimes. Si profondément, si sincèrement qu'il puisse regretter ce qu'il a fait, dès l'instant qu'il a déclenché un enchaînement de causes et d'effets, celui-ci suivra son cours comme si aucun changement ne s'était produit dans le cœur de cet homme. C'est ce qui se passe dans le Roi Lear.

Le Roi Lear

Written at the end of the life of Elizabeth I, Henry V is an inspirational, gripping play that struck a chord in a time of uncertainty. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is illustrated throughout by Sir John Gilbert, and includes an introduction by Ned Halley. First staged in 1599, Shakespeare's history of Henry V's remarkable victory over the French at Agincourt and the subsequent peace between the two nations is also a study of war and kingship. From his wild youth, Henry comes to embody all of the kingly virtues: courage, justice, integrity and honour.

King Henry V

Le roi lear « Un homme peut voir sans yeux comment va le monde. Regarde avec tes oreilles. » Avant de diviser son royaume entre ses trois filles, le roi Lear demande à chacune de lui prouver son amour. Alors que les deux aînées n'hésitent pas à jouer la carte de la flatterie, Cordélia se montre plus réservée. Blessé dans son orgueil, le père déshérite la seule qui l'aime d'un amour véritable. Par sa vanité, Lear a provoqué sa perte. Banni et abandonné de tous, il sombre dans la folie... Et le chaos s'empare du royaume maudit de Grande-Bretagne. Emmené par un monarque dont l'amour-propre aura raison de son règne, ce drame familial épingle la bouffissure et l'hypocrisie des courtisans du XVIe siècle anglais.

After the exotic eroticism of Antony and Cleopatra, Shakespeare returned to Rome for one of his final tragedies, and the change could not have been more dramatic. Coriolanus is one of Shakespeare's harshest and most challenging studies of power, politics and masculinity, based around the life of Caius Marcius.  Based on the Roman chronicles of Plutarch's Lives and Livy's History of Rome, the play is set in the early years of the Roman Republic. Its famous opening scene, particularly admired by Bertolt Brecht, portrays its citizens as starving and rebellious, and horrified by the arrogant and dismissive attitude of Caius Marcius, one of Rome's most valiant but also political naive soldiers. Spurred on by his ambitious mother Volumnia, Caius takes the city of Corioles, is renamed Coriolanus in honour of his victory, and is encouraged to run for senate. However, his contempt for the citizens, who he calls "scabs" and "musty superfluity" ultimately leads to his exile and destructive alliance with his deadly foe, Aufidius. Despite its relative unpopularity, Coriolanus is a fascinating study of both public and personal life. Its language is dense and complex, as its representation of the tensions built into the fabric of Roman political life. Yet it also contains extraordinarily intimate scenes between Coriolanus and both his mother, who ultimately proves "most mortal" to her own son, and his enemy Aufidius, whose "rapt heart" is happier to see Coriolanus than his own wife. One of Shakespeare's darker and more disturbing plays. --Jerry Brotton

Coriolan

This edition of Richard III features seven scenes, opening with the Duke of Gloucester’s villainous “Winter of our discontent” speech and followed by his audacious wooing of Lady Anne. Queen Margaret’s chilling curses, Richard’s string of murders, and the haunting chants of his victims’ ghosts are stage drama at its best. The climax is a gripping battle in which the Earl of Richmond slays Richard and becomes King of England. There is also an essay by editor Nick Newlin on how to produce a Shakespeare play with novice actors, and notes about the original production of this abridgement at the Folger Shakespeare Library’s annual Student Shakespeare Festival.The edition includes a preface by Nick Newlin, containing helpful advice on presenting Shakespeare in a high school setting with novice actors, as well as an appendix with play-specific suggestions and recommendations for further resources.

William Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" is a gripping political drama that delves into the complex themes of power, betrayal, and the consequences of ambition.
Set in ancient Rome, the play unfolds in the wake of Caesar's triumphant return from war. As the city celebrates his victories, a group of senators, including Brutus and Cassius, grows increasingly concerned about Caesar's growing influence and potential tyranny. They plot his assassination in an attempt to preserve the Roman Republic.
The play explores the moral dilemmas faced by its characters, particularly Brutus, who must grapple with his loyalty to Caesar and his love for Rome. The famous line "Et tu, Brute?" captures the heart-wrenching moment when Brutus joins the conspiracy against Caesar.
Shakespeare's masterful language and deep insights into human nature shine throughout the play. He examines the consequences of political machinations and the chaos that ensues when leaders are overthrown.
"Julius Caesar" is not just a historical tragedy; it's a timeless exploration of the human condition and the eternal struggle for power. It raises questions about the morality of political actions and the tension between individual honor and the greater good.
This play continues to captivate readers and audiences alike with its compelling characters, intense conflicts, and thought-provoking themes. Whether you're interested in history, politics, or simply enjoy a well-crafted story, "Julius Caesar" remains a must-read classic that offers profound insights into the complexities of human ambition and the consequences of our choices.
