Author: William Shakespeare

About the Author: William Shakespeare (English: William Shakespeare) is a prominent English poet, playwright and actor in English literature in particular and world literature in general. He has been called the “Patriotic Poet” and the “Epic Poet of Avon.” Poetics (two long narrative poems) and some poems His plays and works have been translated into all living languages ​​and performed far more than any other playwright. Shakespeare was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire. He married Anne Hathaway at the age of 18, and had three children: Susanna and twins, Judith and Hamnet. Between 1585 and 1592, he began his successful career in London as an actor, writer, and partner in a theater company called the Lord Chamberlain’s Men, later known as the King’s Men. At the age of 49 (about 1613), he retired to Stratford, where he died three years later. Few and limited records of Shakespeare’s private life have been found; This led to much speculation about his physical appearance, sexuality, religious beliefs, and whether or not the works attributed to him were written by others. Such views and speculations are often criticized because they did not refer to the fact that few records of his life survived at that time. Shakespeare produced most of his best known works between 1589 and 1613. His early plays focused on comedy and history, and were considered to be some of the best works of this genre ever produced. Then, until about 1608, he turned to writing tragedians, as among his works in that period were Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth, all of which are considered among the best works in English literature at all. In the latter phase of his life, he turned to writing tragicomedies (also known as romances) in collaboration with other playwrights. Many of his plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy during his lifetime. In 1623 two of his fellow actors, John Hemings and Henry Condell, published a definite text known as the First Folio, a version of a posthumously collected collection of Shakespeare’s dramatic works that included most of the plays we know about him now. This volume has been published along with a poem by Ben Jonson, in which the poet sternly pays tribute to the playwright in his now-famous quote, “Not for this age, but for all ages.” Throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, Shakespeare’s works have been continually modified and rediscovered through new movements in study and performance. His plays and culture are still very popular and are studied, constantly performed and reinterpreted in diverse cultural and political contexts around the world.

Romeo and Juliet book pdf download By William Shakespeare

In Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare creates a violent world, in which two young people fall in love. It is not simply that their families disapprove; the Montagues and the Capulets are engaged in a blood feud. In this death-filled setting, the movement from love at first sight to the lovers’ final union in death seems almost inevitable. And yet, this play set in an extraordinary world has become the quintessential story of young love. In part because of its exquisite language, it is easy to respond as if it were about all young lovers.

The Merchant of Venice book pdf download By William Shakespeare

The Wordsworth Classics’ Shakespeare Series presents a newly-edited sequence of William Shakespeare’s works. The textual editing takes account of recent scholarship while giving the material a careful reappraisal. The Merchant of Venice is one of Shakespeare’s most popular comedies, but it remains deeply controversial. The text may seem anti-Semitic; yet repeatedly, in performance, it has revealed a contrasting nature. Shylock, though vanquished in the law-court, often triumphs in the theatre. In his intensity he can dominate the play, challenging abrasively its romantic and lyrical affirmations. What results is a bitter-sweet drama. Though The Merchant of Venice offers some of the traditional pleasures of romantic comedy, it also exposes the operations of prejudice. Thus Shakespeare remains our contemporary.

Love’s Labour’s Lost book pdf download By William Shakespeare

In this charming comedy of manners, one of Shakespeare’s earliest efforts in the genre, a well-intentioned king vows to forego all fleshly delights, setting the stage for romantic hijinks. Ferdinand, the king of Navarre, insists that his court join him in a pledge to undertake a strict regimen of study and celibacy. The grudging compliance of three noblemen is sorely tested — as is the king’s own resolve — with the arrival of a French princess and a trio of comedy attendants.

Coriolanus book pdf download By William Shakespeare

After the exotic eroticism of Antony and Cleopatra, Shakespeare returned to Rome for one of his final tragedies, and the change could not have been more dramatic. Coriolanus is one of Shakespeare’s harshest and most challenging studies of power, politics and masculinity, based around the life of Caius Marcius. Based on the Roman chronicles of Plutarch’s Lives and Livy’s History of Rome, the play is set in the early years of the Roman Republic. Its famous opening scene, particularly admired by Bertolt Brecht, portrays its citizens as starving and rebellious, and horrified by the arrogant and dismissive attitude of Caius Marcius, one of Rome’s most valiant but also political naive soldiers. Spurred on by his ambitious mother Volumnia, Caius takes the city of Corioles, is renamed Coriolanus in honour of his victory, and is encouraged to run for senate. However, his contempt for the citizens, who he calls “scabs” and “musty superfluity” ultimately leads to his exile and destructive alliance with his deadly foe, Aufidius. Despite its relative unpopularity, Coriolanus is a fascinating study of both public and personal life. Its language is dense and complex, as its representation of the tensions built into the fabric of Roman political life. Yet it also contains extraordinarily intimate scenes between Coriolanus and both his mother, who ultimately proves “most mortal” to her own son, and his enemy Aufidius, whose “rapt heart” is happier to see Coriolanus than his own wife. One of Shakespeare’s darker and more disturbing plays.

All’s Well That Ends Well book pdf download By William Shakespeare

Virtuous maidens, vulgar soldiers, and witty fools populate this extraordinary play, a lively romp that ranges from low farce to moments of great insight. Although the play is a romantic comedy, Shakespeare offers some serious and thought-provoking dramatic fare before fulfilling the promise of the title. In the fine tradition of the Bard’s plucky heroines, All’s Well That Ends Well concerns Helena, the daughter of a renowned physician, and her dauntless passion for the elusive Bertram, Count of Rousillon. Risking her very life for the opportunity to choose Bertram as her husband, Helena’s bid for Bertram’s hand turns out to be only the beginning of a series of trials and tribulations. Finally, at the end of a comic maze of mistaken identities, betrayals, repentance, and dramatic revelations, Helena’s efforts to corral her unwilling lover achieve joyful fulfillment. An ambiguous work in which mirthful entertainment is interwoven with a powerful subtext condemning class prejudice, this play possesses a singular combination of amusement and profundity that has intrigued scholars and theatergoers for four centuries.

Alternating scenes between bawdy tavern and regal court, between revelry and politics, Shakespeare probes at the sources, uses, and responsibilities of power as an old king dies and a young king must choose between a ruler’s solemn duty and a merry but dissipated friend, Falstaff.

Richard II book pdf download By William Shakespeare

Written in 1595, Richard II occupies a significant place in the Shakespeare canon, marking the transition from the earlier history plays dominated by civil war and stark power to a more nuanced representation of the political conflicts of England’s past where character and politics are inextricably intertwined. It is the first of four connected plays–including 1 Henry IV, 2 Henry IV, and Henry V–generally considered Shakespeare’s finest history plays. The drama of Richard II centers on the power struggle between the grandiloquent King Richard and the plain-spoken, blunt Henry Bolingbroke, who is banished from Britain at the beginning of the play. But when Henry’s father John of Gaunt dies, Richard confiscates his property with no regard to his son’s rights, and Bolingbroke returns to confront the king, who surrenders his crown and is imprisoned in Pomfret Castle, where he is soon murdered. This new edition in the acclaimed Oxford Shakespeare series features a freshly edited version of the text. The wide-ranging introduction describes the play’s historical circumstances, both the period that it dramatizes (the start of the “wars of the roses”) and the period in which it was written (late Elizabethan England), and the play’s political significance in its own time and our own. It also focuses on the play’s richly poetic language and its success over the centuries as a play for the stage. Extensive explanatory notes help readers at all levels understand and appreciate the language, characters, and dramatic action and the book’s lively illustrations provide a sense of the historical background and performance of the play.

About the Author: William Shakespeare (English: William Shakespeare) is a prominent English poet, playwright and actor in English literature in particular and world literature in general. He has been called the “Patriotic Poet” and the “Epic Poet of Avon.” Poetics (two long narrative poems) and some poems His plays and works have been translated into all living languages ​​and performed far more than any other playwright. Shakespeare was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire. He married Anne Hathaway at the age of 18, and had three children: Susanna and twins, Judith and Hamnet. Between 1585 and 1592, he began his successful career in London as an actor, writer, and partner in a theater company called the Lord Chamberlain’s Men, later known as the King’s Men. At the age of 49 (about 1613), he retired to Stratford, where he died three years later. Few and limited records of Shakespeare’s private life have been found; This led to much speculation about his physical appearance, sexuality, religious beliefs, and whether or not the works attributed to him were written by others. Such views and speculations are often criticized because they did not refer to the fact that few records of his life survived at that time. Shakespeare produced most of his best known works between 1589 and 1613. His early plays focused on comedy and history, and were considered to be some of the best works of this genre ever produced. Then, until about 1608, he turned to writing tragedians, as among his works in that period were Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth, all of which are considered among the best works in English literature at all. In the latter phase of his life, he turned to writing tragicomedies (also known as romances) in collaboration with other playwrights. Many of his plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy during his lifetime. In 1623 two of his fellow actors, John Hemings and Henry Condell, published a definite text known as the First Folio, a version of a posthumously collected collection of Shakespeare’s dramatic works that included most of the plays we know about him now. This volume has been published along with a poem by Ben Jonson, in which the poet sternly pays tribute to the playwright in his now-famous quote, “Not for this age, but for all ages.” Throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, Shakespeare’s works have been continually modified and rediscovered through new movements in study and performance. His plays and culture are still very popular and are studied, constantly performed and reinterpreted in diverse cultural and political contexts around the world.
