Info autore

William Shakespeare (1564 -1616) was an English poet, playwright, and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist.[2] He is often called England's national poet, and the "Bard of Avon". His extant works, including collaborations, consist of approximately 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two 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.

Riassunto

For this third edition of Julius Caesar Jeremy Lopez has written a completely new Introduction and has also revised the textual commentary with an eye, and ear, to the contemporary student reader. The list of further readings has been updated to reflect the latest developments in scholarly criticism.
