Synopsis "Sonetos (in Spanish)"

Durante su juventud, William Shakespeare (1564-1616) compuso numerosos sonetos que fueron publicados en 1609. Centrados principalmente en torno a las figuras de un amigo y de la llamada -dama oscura-, estos poemas únicos sobresalen por el apasionado acento de su experiencia vivida y por la profundidad con la que hace brillar los motivos universales del amor el sufrimiento, los celos, los reproches, las traiciones, el hastío, la melancolía incurable, la fugacidad del tiempo contra la que lucha desesperadamente el amor. La versión de esta edición bilingüe corre a cargo de Antonio Rivero Taravillo.

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.
