A Brief Note About the Text: This is the text of the 1623 printing of the first folio. The original spelling and punctuation are completely intact. I have made two minor changes. First, I have capitalized and spelled out the character names. Glou. It did alwayes seeme so to vs, becomes GLOUCESTER. It did alwayes seeme so to vs. The second change is that I have put the prose lines into prose form. If there was any possibility that a prose line could scan, however awkwardly, I have left the verse-like form of the line as it appears in the folio. Again, the spelling and punctuation of the 1623 first folio text are entirely intact. If you enjoy this copy of King Lear, please take a moment to review the book online

In The Merchant of Venice, the path to marriage is hazardous. To win Portia, Bassanio must pass a test prescribed by her father's will, choosing correctly among three caskets or chests. If he fails, he may never marry at all. Bassanio and Portia also face a magnificent villain, the moneylender Shylock. In creating Shylock, Shakespeare seems to have shared in a widespread prejudice against Jews. Shylock would have been regarded as a villain because he was a Jew. Yet he gives such powerful expression to his alienation due to the hatred around him that, in many productions, he emerges as the hero. Portia is most remembered for her disguise as a lawyer, Balthazar, especially the speech in which she urges Shylock to show mercy that "droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven."

En Romeo y Julieta, Shakespeare crea un mundo violento, en el que dos j venes se enamoran. No es simplemente que sus familias entran en conflicto; no: los Montague y los Capuleto est n envueltos en un feudo de sangre y rencor. En este ambiente con olor a muerte, la transici n desde el amor a primera vista hasta la uni n final de los amantes en la muerte parece casi inevitable. Sin embargo, este juego ambientado en un mundo extraordinario se ha convertido en la historia por excelencia del amor joven, que no s lo se ha representado en teatro, sino que se ha adaptado para cine, pera, danza y c mic.
