William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) regnes som Vestens fremste dramatiker, med en uovertruffen beherskelse over det engelske språket. Blant hans 37 skuespill er tragediene "Hamlet" (ca. 1601) og "Macbeth" (1606) de mest kjente. Hamlet er prins av Danmark. Han har fått i oppdrag å ta livet av kongen, som har tilranet seg tronen. Han påtar seg en rolle der han spiller gal for å komme innpå sitt offer. Men han nages av tvil og mangel på handlekraft, og det blir uskyldige som får lide. Boken er gjendiktet av André Bjerke.

Kjærligheten vendes til sjalusi, og blindet av forvridd æresfølelse ledes han mot sitt dobbelt tragiske fall. Stykket er gjendiktet av Erik Bystad.

Julius Caesar is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in 1599. It portrays the conspiracy against the Roman dictator of the same name, his assassination and its aftermath. It is one of several Roman plays that he wrote, based on true events from Roman history, which also include Coriolanus and Antony and Cleopatra. Although the title of the play is Julius Caesar, Caesar is not the central character in its action; he appears in only three scenes, and is killed at the beginning of the third act. The protagonist of the play is Marcus Brutus, and the central psychological drama is his struggle between the conflicting demands of honor, patriotism, and friendship.

The Merchant of Venice is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1596 and 1598. Although classified as a comedy in the First Folio, and while it shares certain aspects with Shakespeare's other romantic comedies, the play is perhaps more remembered for its dramatic scenes, and is best known for the character of Shylock. The title character is the merchant Antonio, not the Jewish moneylender Shylock, who is the play's most prominent and more famous villain. Though Shylock is a tormented character, he is also a tormentor, so whether he is to be viewed with disdain or sympathy is up to the audience (as influenced by the interpretation of the play's director and lead actors). As a result, The Merchant of Venice is often classified as one of Shakespeare's problem plays.
