Voici deux volumes d'un créateur génial servi par un homme de théâtre considérable, Jean Gillibert. Le même souci de la réalité théâtrale de William Shakespeare - et non la seule " dramaturgie " de ses pièces - a guidé Gillibert et l'a obligé. Que l'anglais soit la plus latine des langues saxonnes, au nom secret de cette ambiguïté, a su servir ce tragique d'un réel poétique et lyrique étonnant.

Oeuvres - Tome 2, La vie de Timon d'Athènes ; Hamlet

Esta comedia romántica está considerada uno de los grandes clásicos universales del teatro. Escrita por Shakespeare en 1595, se estructura en 5 actos. Nos cuenta la boda de Teseo e Hipólita, y otras tramas, a través de una suntuosa mezcla de vivaces colores entre el mundo clásico mitológico, la novela caballeresca y el mundo de las hadas. El resultado es una fábula llena de fantasía, ensueño, amor, magia y poesía.

El sueño de una noche de verano

Timon est un noble de d'Athènes, très (trop) généreux avec ses amis qu'il invite régulièrement à des festins somptueux, auxquels il offre des cadeaux hors de prix, à tel point qu'il se retrouve un jour sur la paille et ne peut plus payer ses créanciers. Sûr de la qualité de l'amitié, il se tourne vers ceux à qui il fait moultes cadeaux pour leur demander de l'aide. Ceux-ci trouvent mille excuses pour ne pas aider Timon qui sombre dans la colère envers Athènes et ses nobles, s'exile dans les bois, et maudit la ville et ses habitants hypocrites et avilis par l'appât de l'or. De son côté, Alcibiade, général athénien, se voit refuser l'aide du Sénat, quitte la ville avec son armée pour mieux l'assiéger ensuite. Il essaie d'obtenir le soutien de Timon exilé qui le maudit aussi et fait finalement la paix avec les sénateurs. Timon meurt seul dans les bois laissant pour épitaphe une dernière malédiction pour qui la lira.

The Wordsworth Classics' Shakespeare's Series presents a newly-edited sequence of William Shakespeare's works. The textual editing takes account of recent scholarship while giving the material a careful reappraisal.
The Tempest is the most lyrical, profound and fascinating of Shakespeare's late comedies. Prospero, long exiled from Italy with his daughter Miranda, seeks to use his magical powers to defeat his former enemies. Eventually, having proved merciful, he divests himself of that magic, his 'art', and prepares to return to the mainland. The Tempest has often been regarded as Shakespeare's 'farewell to the stage' before his retirement.
In the past, critics emphasised the romantically beautiful features of The Tempest, seeing it as an imaginative fantasia. In recent decades, however, The Tempest has also been treated as a potently political drama which offers controversial insights into colonialism and racism. Frequently staged and diversely filmed, the play has influenced numerous poets and novelists.

The phoenix and the turtledove are both symbols of love, devotion, and perfection. In this allegorical poem, Shakespeare depicts the funeral arrangements for the Phoenix and the Turtledove, representing love, unity, and marriage in the tragedy of their deaths. Known as "The Bard of Avon, " William Shakespeare is arguably the greatest English-language writer known. Enormously popular during his life, Shakespeare's works continue to resonate more than three centuries after his death, as has his influence on theatre and literature. Shakespeare's innovative use of character, language, and experimentation with romance as tragedy served as a foundation for later playwrights and dramatists, and some of his most famous lines of dialogue have become part of everyday speech.

This   carefully crafted ebook: "Twelfth Night (The Unabridged Play) + The Classic   Biography: The Life of William Shakespeare" is formatted for your eReader   with a functional and detailed table of contents.
This play is named after the Twelfth Night holiday of the Christmas season. It was written around 1601 and first published in the First Folio in 1623.   Like many of Shakespeare's comedies, this one centers on mistaken identity.   The leading character, Viola, is shipwrecked on the shores of Illyria during   the opening scenes. She loses contact with her twin brother, Sebastian, whom   she believes dead. Posing as a man and masquerading as a young page under the   name Cesario, she enters the service of Duke Orsino. Orsino is in love with   the bereaved Lady Olivia, whose brother has recently died and decides to use   "Cesario" as an intermediary. Olivia, believing Viola to be a man, falls in   love with this handsome and eloquent messenger. Viola, in turn, has fallen in   love with the Duke, who also believes Viola is a man and who regards her as   his confidant.
Life of William Shakespeare is a biography of William Shakespeare by the   eminent critic Sidney Lee.  This book   was one of the first major biographies of the Bard of Avon. It was published   in 1898, based on the article contributed to the Dictionary of National   Biography.
William Shakespeare (1564  - 1616)   was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in   the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often   called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon".

Sir Sidney Lee (1859 - 1926) was an English biographer and critic. He was a   lifelong scholar and enthusiast of Shakespeare. His article on Shakespeare in   the fifty-first volume of the Dictionary of National Biography formed the   basis of his Life of William Shakespeare.

TWELFTH NIGHT

"Two households, both alike in dignity, 

In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, 

From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, 

Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. 

From forth the fatal loins of these two foes 

A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life; 

Whose misadventur'd piteous overthrows 

Doth with their death bury their parents' strife. 

The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love, 

And the continuance of their parents' rage, 

Which but their children's end naught could remove, 

Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage; 

The which, if you with patient ears attend, 

What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend. "
