The Oxford Shakespeare: Romeo and Juliet

Buchbewertung

Mehr zum Buch

This innovative edition offers modernized texts not only of the 1599 quarto but also of the short, or 'bad', quarto of 1597, regarding each as witness to a 'mobile text' which changed in composition as Shakespeare wrote it and which has continued to evolve throughout its richly varied history, both in the theatre and in film, television, opera, and ballet. The more familiar 1599 text is accompanied by a detailed explanatory commentary. The Introduction traces the Romeo and Juliet narrative from its origins in myth through its adaptation in the novella, and shows how Shakespeare's transmutation of the story reflects contemporary concerns with love, death, adolescence, and patriarchism.

Julia, oh Julia, lass dein Haar herunter. Oder so ähnlich. Ich muss zugeben, mich hat die Geschichte jetzt nicht so doll berührt. Shakespeare ist eh nicht so meins, seine Geschichten haben mich schon immer eher verstört oder hinterliessen mich perplex
