Audiokniha: Eduard Kohout (*6. 3. 1889 –25. 10. 1976) byl český herec, po desítky let byl jedním z protagonistů činoherního souboru Národního divadla v Praze, kde byl v angažmá v letech 1916 až 1960, kdy odešel do důchodu, ale pohostinsky zde hrál takřka do své smrti. Vystupoval i ve filmu, v rozhlase a televizi. Patřil k důležitým osobnostem českého herectví 20. století. Jeho projev se vyvíjel z psychologického realismu přes impresionismus, expresionismus a civilismus až k věcnosti a tlumenosti s využíváním všech výrazových prostředků. Výborně ovládal svůj podmanivý zvláštní hlas. Od 20. let pod vedením K. H. Hilara vytříbil svůj herecký rejstřík a vyrostl ve vynikajícího umělce. Byl obsazován do rolí romantických či lyrických, heroických i komických, zahrál prosťáčka stejně jako rozbolavělého, rozervaného, konfliktního dramatického hrdinu. Pod Hilarovým vedením hrál v Bratrech Karamazových, Lucerně, Králi Oidipovi, Svaté Johance, ve Višňovém sadu, Zkrocení zlé ženy či Dnes ještě zapadá slunce nad Atlantidou, Cyrano z Bergeracu aj. Role pro dramatické herce snové, ale také nejtěžší - Hamleta - se zhostil doslova famózně; získal ocenění nejen kritiky, ale také velkou popularitu. Po Hilarově smrti spolupracoval neméně úspěšně s režiséry Jiřím Frejkou a Karlem Dostalem. Ve filmu nebýval obsazován do hlavních rolí - za jeho nejvýraznější a nejlepší filmovou roli je pokládána role podivínského Artuše Fabiána ve filmu Turbína.

eBook: After the exotic eroticism of Antony and Cleopatra, Shakespeare returned to Rome for one of his final tragedies, and the change could not have been more dramatic. Coriolanus is one of Shakespeare's harshest and most challenging studies of power, politics and masculinity, based around the life of Caius Marcius. Based on the Roman chronicles of Plutarch's Lives and Livy's History of Rome, the play is set in the early years of the Roman Republic. Its famous opening scene, particularly admired by Bertolt Brecht, portrays its citizens as starving and rebellious, and horrified by the arrogant and dismissive attitude of Caius Marcius, one of Rome's most valiant but also political naive soldiers. Spurred on by his ambitious mother Volumnia, Caius takes the city of Corioles, is renamed Coriolanus in honour of his victory, and is encouraged to run for senate. However, his contempt for the citizens, who he calls "scabs" and "musty superfluity" ultimately leads to his exile and destructive alliance with his deadly foe, Aufidius. Despite its relative unpopularity, Coriolanus is a fascinating study of both public and personal life. Its language is dense and complex, as its representation of the tensions built into the fabric of Roman political life. Yet it also contains extraordinarily intimate scenes between Coriolanus and both his mother, who ultimately proves "most mortal" to her own son, and his enemy Aufidius, whose "rapt heart" is happier to see Coriolanus than his own wife. One of Shakespeare's darker and more disturbing plays. --Jerry Brotton

eBook: In Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare creates a world of violence and generational conflict in which two young people fall in love and die because of that love. The story is rather extraordinary in that the normal problems faced by young lovers are here so very large. It is not simply that the families of Romeo and Juliet disapprove of the lover's affection for each other; rather, the Montagues and the Capulets are on opposite sides in a blood feud and are trying to kill each other on the streets of Verona. Every time a member of one of the two families dies in the fight, his relatives demand the blood of his killer. Because of the feud, if Romeo is discovered with Juliet by her family, he will be killed. Once Romeo is banished, the only way that Juliet can avoid being married to someone else is to take a potion that apparently kills her, so that she is burried with the bodies of her slain relatives. In this violent, death-filled world, the movement of the story from love at first sight to the union of the lovers in death seems almost inevitable. What is so striking about this play is that despite its extraordinary setting (one perhaps reflecting Elizabethan attitudes about hot-blooded Italians), it has become the quintessential story of young love. Because most young lovers feel that they have to overcome giant obstacles in order to be together, because they feel that they would rather die than be kept apart, and especially because the language Shakespeare gives his young lovers is so exquisite, allowing them to say to each other just what we would all say to a lover if we only knew how, it is easy to respond to this play as if it were about all young lovers rather than about a particular couple in a very unusual world. (When the play was rewritten in the eighteen century as The History and Fall of Caius Marius, the violent setting became that of a particularly discordant period in classical Rome; when Leonard Berstein rewrote the play as West Side Story, he chose the violent world of New York street gangs.)
