This edition of 'King Lear', one of William Shakespeare's greatest works, features a meticulous translation and prologue by José María Álvarez. The author, a renowned scholar of Shakespeare's work, has collaborated closely with actor Eusebio Lázaro to offer a version that is not only faithful to the original text but specifically designed for the stage, making the gestures, intonations, and dramatic action accessible to the contemporary reader. Published by Ediciones Espuela de Plata as part of 'El teatro moderno' collection, this book is an essential piece for any lover of classical literature, combining academic rigor with theatrical sensitivity.

William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" or simply "the Bard". His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, 3 long narrative poems and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright. Shakespeare remains arguably the most influential writer in the English language, and his works continue to be studied and reinterpreted.
