Hamlet is not only one of Shakespeare''s greatest plays, but also the most fascinatingly problematical tragedy in world literature. First performed around 1600, this a gripping and exuberant drama of revenge, rich in contrasts and conflicts. Its violence alternates with introspection, its melancholy with humour, and its subtlety with spectacle. The Prince, Hamlet himself, is depicted as a complex, divided, introspective character. His reflections on death, morality and the very status of human beings make him ‘the first modern man’. Countless stage productions and numerous adaptations for the cinema and television have demonstrated the continuing cultural relevance of this vivid, enigmatic, profound and engrossing drama.

The authoritative edition of Macbeth from The Folger Shakespeare Library, the trusted and widely used Shakespeare series for students and general readers.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.

Macbeth, skotský šlechtic a hrdina, člověk obddivovaný a uctívaný všemi, v této hře podlehne ctižádosti a touze po moci natolik, že se dopustí zločinu nejtěžšího - krvavé královraždy. Tato nejkratší a nejsevřenější Shakespearova tragédie má strhující rytmus a akčnost, psychologickou hloubku, je to hra úderná i básnická, drama strmého vzestupu a pádu. Macbeth se vraždou domůže moci nejvyšší, stane se králem, ale aby si moc udržel, musí vraždit dál, brodí se krví, stává se nelidskou bestií, netvorem, co chvíli křičí na jevišti svěšta, jen aby poznal, že jeho život je pustý žvást idiota, jen hluk a vřava - a neznamená nic.
