Je disais des malchances désastreuses Le bouleversement des aventures Sur mer, sur terre, et la mort qui me frôle À un cheveu sur la brèche qui brûle, L'ennemi insolent qui me saisit Pour me vendre en esclave ; je disais Ma rédemption et ma longue patience, L'histoire de mes pérégrinations ;
Là, les déserts sans fin, les vastes grottes, Chaos de roches, rocs grimpant au ciel Peuplaient mes mots - tel fut mon procédé - Et puis, les Cannibales, qui se mangent Les uns les autres, les Anthropophages, Et puis ces hommes dont la tête pousse En dessous des épaules. Desdémone Fut fort encline à écouter cela...

Richard III is a historical play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in approximately 1592. It depicts the Machiavellian rise to   power and subsequent short reign of Richard III of England. The play   chronicles Richard's dramatic rise and fall. Shakespeare famously portrays him   as a "deformed hunchback" who ruthlessly lies, murders, and   manipulates his way to throne before being taken down by the guy who becomes   King Henry VII (whose reign ends the Wars of the Roses and ushers in the   Tudor dynasty). Despite his wickedness, Richard is the kind of villain that   audiences just love to hate.
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".  His extant works, including some   collaborations, consist of about 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative   poems, and a few other verses, the authorship of some of which is   uncertain.

The Merchant of Venice (The Unabridged Play) + The Classic Biography: The Life of William Shakespeare

Quelque chose est pourri dans l'état du Danemark !  Le soir venu, le spectre du roi défunt hante les brumes du château d'Elseneur. Il crie vengeance. Honte à son frère Claudius, le lâche assassin ! Hamlet, son fils, l'a promis : ce crime ne restera pas impuni. Mais au bord du gouffre, voilà que le jeune homme vacille :  Être ou bien ne pas être ?  Jeu de miroirs, faux-semblants, théâtre dans le théâtre... Folie simulée ou véritable démence ? Le meurtre est pourtant bien réel. Et la mort d'Ophélie annonce de nouveaux désastres. Au coeur de la tragédie jaillissent alors les voix mystérieuses du pouvoir et de la guerre, de l'amour et de la mort. La poésie de Shakespeare fuse à chaque instant, racontant le mythe universel d'une humanité confrontée à ses démons.

 Hamlet est l'interprète de pensées et de sentiments tourmentés qui ne sont pas étroitement les siens. On y entend l'écho d'inquiétudes, d'aspirations et de déconvenues qui sont celles d'une époque et pas seulement d'elle.  Michel Grivelet.

Une édition bilingue de Hamlet dans une traduction inédite en poche de Michel Grivelet saluée par Pierre Assouline.

When Romeo, heartbroken and love-sick over Rosalind, meets Juliet, he falls in love almost instantly. Masked and unaware of her family origins, Romeo doesn't realize that Juliet is a Capulet-sworn enemies of his family, the Montagues. The lovers decide to escape their families' legacies and marry. Yet, it is not to be so-Juliet and her Romeo meet a tragic end, which finally unites their families and ends years of strife. Perhaps the most famous love story in the world, Romeo and Juliet is Shakespeare's most enduring work, and from Shakespeare in Love to Shakespeare in the Park, the star-crossed lovers have met across a crowded stage for over four hundred years. 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.
