Much ado about nothing
Sin existencias
COP $ 28.000The Wordsworth Classics \' Shakespeare Series presents a newly-edited sequence of William Shakespeares works. The textual editing takes account of recent scholarship while giving the material a careful reappraisal. Much Ado about Nothing has long been celebrated as one of Shakespeares most popular comedies. The central relationship, between Benedick and Beatrice, is wittily combative until love prevails. Broader comedy is provided by Dogberry, Verges and the watchmen. The drama ranges between the destructively sinister and the lyrically romantic, giving the whole a complex and sometimes problematic character. Numerous revivals, in the theatre and on screen, have displayed the lively variety and interpretative openness of this engaging comedy. Nota: el contenido de este libro se encuentra en inglés.

The Iliad
Sin existencias
COP $ 28.000The product of more than a decades continuous work (1598-1611), Chapman\'s translation of Homer\'s great poem of war is a magnificent testimony to the power of the Iliad. In muscular, onward-rolling verse Chapman retells the story of Achilles, the great warrior, and his terrible wrath before the walls of besieged Troy, and the destruction it wreaks on both Greeks and Trojans. Chapman regarded the translation of this epic, and of Homers Odyssey (also available in Wordsworth Editions) as his lifes work, and dedicated himself to capturing the \'soul\' of the poem. Swinburne praised the resulting translation for its \'romantic and sometimes barbaric grandeur, its freshness, strength, and inexhaustible fire.Nota: el contenido de este libro se encuentra en inglés.
