«La tempestad» is the play by William Shakespeare, published by Espasa-Calpe in paperback (144 pages, in Spanish).
The play, apparently Shakespeare's last, is inspired by the famous 1609 shipwreck near Bermuda. In the midst of the debate on the discovery and colonisation of the New World, it offers a reflection on the boundaries between fiction and reality and presents itself as a marvellous fable that conceals some enigma or hidden meaning.
This edition is part of the Austral Collection, with translation and editing by Ángel-Luis Pujante. The original work was published as The Tempest in 1611.
Aimed at readers of classical theatre and literature students who want a Spanish edition with a translation by Ángel-Luis Pujante.
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.
