Description

- Ricardo II - - Enrique IV - - Ricardo III - - Enrique V - - El rey Juan - - Enrique VI - - Enrique VIII - «Dulce, dulce veneno en la boca de la época.» El Rey Juan, I, i De entre todas las pasiones que Shakespeare retrató a lo largo de su extensa obra, la fascinación por el poder es quizá una de las más oscuras; y en ella se centran todos sus dramas históricos. Más allá del episodio anecdótico, generalmente referido a momentos clave del auge de la dinastía Tudor -de Ricardo II a Enrique VIII, de la Guerra de las Dos Rosas a los inicios de la reforma anglicana-, Shakespeare se interesa por el hombre que se oculta tras la máscara de un monarca. Dramas históricos es el tercer volumen de una colección de cinco que reúne la obra completa de Shakespeare. Aquí se incluyen la trilogía de Enrique VI,Ricardo III, El rey Juan, Ricardo II, las dos partes de Enrique IV, Enrique V y Enrique VIII. Esta edición, a cargo de Andreu Jaume, quien firma también la introducción, presenta las mejores traducciones contemporáneas, respetando el verso y la prosa originales. Un festín para todos los amantes de las buenas letras.
