HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.

 Power, corruption and betrayal are at the heart of Shakespeare's most well-known historical and political drama. As Julius Caesar moves closer to securing power for himself and is perceived by some as a threat to Roman citizens, his senators plot to bring about his downfall. Caesar's assassination leads to civil war rather than peace and the play explores the subsequent deaths of the conspirators Brutus and Cassius.

 Shakespeare's contemporaries would have spotted the playwright's attempts to use the shift from republican to imperial Rome to highlight the political situation of the Elizabethans at the time. Featuring some of the most powerfully resonant and rousing speeches of any of Shakespeare's plays, Julius Caesar remains one of his most well-loved historical tragedies.

" Toute la symbolique de La Tragédie d'Othello le Maure de Venise se trouve condensée dans ce titre, qui, d'emblée, dit le tragique et ses modalités : l'exil et la rupture, l'altérité, et la présence, au coeur des relations entre les protagonistes, d'une irréductible obscurité. Le titre pose aussi l'antinomie autour de laquelle s'articule la dramaturgie tragique : l'opposition entre l'ombre, dont le Maure est la représentation métonymique, et la lumière, associée aux splendeurs vénitiennes. D'abord concentrées dans le personnage de l'étranger, propagées par les machinations obscures d'Iago, les ténèbres envahissent progressivement l'univers dramatique, jusqu'à la nuit du drame. " Léone Teyssandier.

Une édition bilingue d'Othello avec une introduction et une traduction de Léone Teyssandier inédites en poche et saluées par Pierre Assouline.
