«Otelo» is the tragedy by William Shakespeare, published by Edimat Libros in hardback (128 pages, in Spanish).
The play centres on Otelo, a Moorish general in the service of Venice, and on the progressive poisoning of his mind by jealousy. The story shows how distrust, sown by one who presents himself as a friend, corrodes his relationship with Desdémona and drives him towards a tragic outcome. Shakespeare thus portrays the most universal human passions through unforgettable characters.
This title belongs to the Clásicos Selección collection from Edimat Libros. The edition includes a prologue by Vicente Molina Foix and was published in 1999.
Aimed at readers who want to approach universal classical theatre in an affordable Spanish-language edition.
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.
