«Romeo e Giulietta. Testo inglese a fronte» is William Shakespeare's tragedy in a bilingual Italian-English edition, in paperback.
Romeo and Juliet, two young people from Verona united by a forbidden love, live their passion while their families maintain a violent enmity. The play contrasts the purity of the lovers with inherited hatred and the fatality announced in the prologue; the conflict between generations leads to a tragic outcome.
Published by Oscar Classici Mandadori; translation by Salvatore Quasimodo, introduction by Paolo Bertinetti, edited by Anna Luisa Zazo and essay by Harold Bloom.
Ideal for students of literature and theatre, and for readers who want to compare the original English version with the Italian translation.
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.
