«Julio César» is the tragedy by William Shakespeare, published by Planeta DeAgostini in hardback (141 pages, in Spanish).
The play recreates the conspiracy against the Roman dictator, his assassination and the political consequences that lead to civil war. Despite the title, the dramatic focus is Brutus, caught between honour, friendship and the good of Rome; critics associate this tension with Elizabethan anxiety over the succession to the crown.
Work written around 1599 and published in this edition in February 2000, with translation, introduction and notes by José María Valverde.
Suitable for literature students and readers interested in classical Elizabethan theatre.
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.
