«Otelo» is the tragedy by William Shakespeare, published by Planeta in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
Othello, the Moor of Venice, embodies nobility and love, while Iago weaves a web of deceit driven by envy and malice. It is the only one of Shakespeare's great tragedies based on a work of fiction. Jealousy, passion and pride drag the hero towards a devastating ending, in which he contemplates his own ruin.
The play was originally published in 1603. This edition, from the Austral Esenciales collection, includes translation and editing by Ángel-Luis Pujante, National Translation Award winner.
A classic of world theatre, regular reading in schools and a reference work for approaching Shakespeare.
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.
