Synopsis "Macbeth (in Spanish)"

Compuesta entre 1605 y 1606, MACBETH es sin duda una de las cumbres de la producción de William Shakespeare (1574-1616). En ella, el inmortal dramaturgo nos adentra en un mundo oscuro y fantasmagórico dominado por la discordia y regido por el miedo y la desconfianza, en el que el fiel vasallo del rey Duncan que da nombre a la obra se ve arrastrado de forma irremisible a la traición y al crimen por obra de la ambición que Lady Macbeth personifica. La presente edición, a cargo de M. Á. Conejero, ha sido realizada por el equipo del Instituto Shakespeare de la Universidad de Valencia. Otras obras del autor en esta biblioteca: «La tempestad» (BA 0921), «Romeo y Julieta» (BA 0924), «El rey Lear» (BA 0925), «Hamlet» (BA 0926).

William Shakespeare (Stratford-upon-Avon, c. April 23, 1564jul. - Ibid., April 23/May 3, 1616) was an English playwright, poet, and actor. Often known as the Bard of Avon (or simply the Bard), he is considered the most important writer in the English language and one of the most famous in world literature.

According to the Encyclopædia Britannica, "Shakespeare is generally acknowledged as the greatest of all time writers, a unique figure in the history of literature. The fame of other poets, such as Homer and Dante Alighieri, or novelists such as Leo Tolstoy or Charles Dickens, has transcended national barriers, but none has achieved the reputation of Shakespeare, whose works today are read and performed more frequently and in more countries than ever. The prophecy of one of his great contemporaries, Ben Jonson, has thus been fulfilled: 'Shakespeare does not belong to one age but to eternity'".

Among his most notable works are Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, and A Midsummer Night's Dream. His ability to portray the complexities of human nature, along with his mastery in the use of verse and language, has made him a timeless figure.
