Macbeth - William Shakespeare - Bog

af William Shakespeare
Macbeth af William Shakespeare
Bag om Macbeth

In 1603, James VI of Scotland ascended the English throne, becoming James I of England. London was alive with an interest in all things Scottish, and Shakespeare turned to Scottish history for material. He found a spectacle of violence and stories of traitors advised by witches and wizards, echoing James's belief in a connection between treason and witchcraft. In depicting a man who murders to become king, Macbeth teases us with huge questions. Is Macbeth tempted by fate, or by his or his wife's ambition? Why does their success turn to ashes? Like other plays, Macbeth speaks to each generation. Its story was once seen as that of a hero who commits an evil act and pays an enormous price. Recently, it has been applied to nations that overreach themselves and to modern alienation. The line is blurred between Macbeth's evil and his opponents' good, and there are new attitudes toward both witchcraft and gender.

Bag om William Shakespeare

Vis alle bøger af William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare var en berømt engelsk digter, skuespiller og dramatiker født i 1564 i Stratford-upon-Avon. Shakespeare var forfatteren under den elizabethanske og jakobeanske tidsalder af britisk teater, hvor han skrev produktivt. Hans klassiske digte forbliver også populære i dag. Shakespeare har tilsammen 38 skuespil, 2 fortællende digte, 154 sonetter og en række andre digte. Hans originale manuskripter af skuespillene eksisterer ikke, men takket være en gruppe skuespillere fra Shakespeares kompagni, har vi halvdelen af stykkerne. Alle hans skrifter er samlet i forskellige iterationer af “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare”. Hans sonetter er udgivet af Thomas Thorpe i 1609 og efterfølges af det lange digt “A Lover’s Complaint”, som udkom på samme tid. Seks af hans yderligere populære sonetter optræder i Shakespeares skuespil: “Romeo og Julie”, “Henry V” og “Love’s Labour's Lost”. Den første udgivne værk af Shakespeare var, “Venus og Adonis”...
