Written in the early 1590s, Shakespeare s version of the story of Richard III, more properly known as The Tragedy of Richard the Third, depicts events that happened more than a century before. The story is based on the unfinished History of Richard III by Sir Thomas More, writing as the Tudor dynasty was seeking to consolidate its position. Shakespeare portrays his usurping, hunchbacked Richard as truly villainous, with few redeeming features. Yet as he strives to consolidate power, he is a compelling and charismatic character, delivering some of Shakespeare s most memorable lines. As well as the play itself, this edition contains: • An extended introduction that looks at the play s history, its structure, and characters• A glossary of words and terms• Notes on the text • A timeline of William Shakespeare s life and work

Richard III is one of the finest of Shakespeareâ ™s historical dramas. Although it has a huge cast, Richard himself, gleefully wicked, charismatically Machiavellian, always dominates the play: a role to gratify such leading actors as David Garrick, Laurence Olivier, Anthony Sher, Ian McKellen and Al Pacino. Since, in real life, political Machiavellianism is never out of date, Richard III remains perennially topical. Numerous revivals on stage and screen have demonstrated the enduring cogency of this drama about the lethally corrupting quest for power.Richard III is the twenty-first play in the Wordsworth Classicsâ ™ Shakespeare Series. The Times Literary Supplement says: â ˜Many students and ordinary readers will be grateful to Watts and his publishers for making such useful editions available at such low cost.â ™

Edited, introduced and annotated by Cedric Watts, M.A., Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of English, University of Sussex.Richard II is one of Shakespeareâ ™s finest works: lucid, eloquent, and boldly structured. It can be seen as a tragedy, or a historical play, or a political drama, or as one part of a vast dramatic cycle which helped to generate Englandâ ™s national identity. Today, to some of us, Richard II may appear conservative; but, in Shakespeareâ ™s day, it could appear subversive: â ˜I am Richard IIâ ™, declared an indignant Queen Elizabeth.Numerous recent revivals in the theatre and on screen have demonstrated the enduring power and poignancy of this drama of the downfall of an egoistic but pitiable monarch.Richard II is the seventeenth volume in the Wordsworth Classicsâ ™ Shakespeare Series, in which each volume has been freshly edited by Cedric Watts.

Edward III comes to life in a new version by playwright Octavio Solis. Written after England⠙s victory over the Spanish Armada in 1588, Edward III follows the exploits of King Edward III and his son Edward, the Black Prince of Wales. England dominates on the battlefield as the play explores questions of kinghood and chivalry through the actions of King Edward and his son. Octavio Solis⠙s translation of the play provides all of the complexity and richness of the original while renewing the allusions and metaphors lost through time. This translation of Edward III was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival⠙s Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present work from ⠜The Bard⠝ in language accessible to modern audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare⠙s verse. Enlisting the talents of a diverse group of contemporary playwrights, screenwriters, and dramaturges from diverse backgrounds, this project reenvisions Shakespeare for the twenty-first century. These volumes make these works available for the first time in print⠔a new First Folio for a new era.

Britský bestseller, který roku 2012 vedl k nalezení těla Richarda III., ač podle legend mělo být vhozeno do řeky a zmizet na věky! Richard III. je znám jako jeden z nejkontroverznějších panovníků v anglické historii - díky skvělému dramatu Williama Shakespeara ho máme zafixovaného jako prvotřídního zloducha, schopného kvůli moci zavraždit i děti, a to vlastní synovce. V posledních 50 letech však probíhá mnoho dalších výzkumů, které legendy okolo Richarda III. vyvracejí. Tato kniha zcela nově a unikátním způsobem mapuje posledních 150 dní života Richarda III. Autor volí přístup z pozice pozorovatele před bitvou u Bosworthu, která se stala Richardovi osudnou, tj. očima člověka nezaujatého výsledkem bitvy, a odkrývá se nám tak zcela nový Richard: žádná pasivní oběť mořená výčitkami svědomí a čekající na svou porážku, ale aktivní král vykonávající své běžné denní povinnosti vyplývající z vlády, trochu naivně podceňující ambiciózního Jindřicha Tudora. Přezkoumáno je zde i období po bitvě u Bosworthu, tj. jak bylo zacházeno s Richardovými ostatky, jak probíhal jeho pohřeb a stavba jeho hrobky - jedna legenda za druhou, nánosy, které přinesla následující staletí, to vše se pomalu rozplývá pod přesvědčivými důkazy. Rovněž jsme svědky autorova fascinujícího pátrání po Richardově DNA, kterou úspěšně nalezl živou a zdravou přes mnohá pokolení až v daleké Kanadě. Díky ní bylo možné s jistotou identifikovat pozůstatky Richarda III., které byly objeveny roku 2012 na základě údajů uvedených v prvním vydání této knihy. Toto je překlad vydání druhého, již rozšířeného o poznatky z archeologického výzkumu. Autor John Ashdown-Hill byl historikem, členem Královské historické společnosti, Společnosti genealogů a Společnosti Richarda III. Napsal mnoho článků a knih na téma pozdního středověku v Anglii.

King Richard III remains one of the most controversial figures in British history. Matthew Lewis⠙s new biography aims to become a definitive account by exploring what is known of his childhood and the impacts it had on his personality and view of the world. He would be cast into insecurity and exile only to become a royal prince before his tenth birthday.As Richard spends his teenage years under the watchful gaze of his older brother, Edward IV, he is eventually placed in the household of their cousin, the Earl of Warwick, remembered as the Kingmaker; but as the relationship between a king and his most influential magnate breaks down, Richard is compelled to make a choice when the House of York fractures. After another period in exile, Richard returns to become the most powerful nobleman in England. The work he involves himself in during the years that follow demonstrates a drive and commitment but also a dangerous naïveté.When crisis hits in 1483, it is to Richard that his older brother turns on his death bed. The events of 1483 remain contentious and hotly debated, but by understanding the Richard who began that year, it will become clearer what drove some of his actions and decisions. Returning to primary sources and considering the evidence available, this new life undoes the myths and presents a real man living in tumultuous times.

Romance. Příběh o kruté bouři, ztroskotancích, kouzelném ostrově a jeho podivuhodném vládci v sobě nese témata ze všech velkých shakespearovských dramat. Je o lásce čisté i sobecké, touze po moci a ovládání druhých, zradě a pomstě, o velikosti a věčné síle usmíření a odpuštění. V Poznámce překladatele Martin Hilský píše: Bouře je poslední velkou hrou Williama Shakespeara (po Bouři napsal Shakespeare už jen Jindřicha VIII. a Dva vznešené příbuzné) a lze ji pokládat za hru bilanční, za jakousi shakespearovskou divadelní summu, v níž se znovu objevují témata a motivy, které Shakespeara zajímaly po celý život. Vztah otce a dcery, pro Bouři klíčový, nemůže neupomenout na Krále Leara a na Othella. Prosperův vladařský osud je příběhem zrady, který dominoval Hamletovi, Macbethovi a Juliu Caesarovi. Bratrská nenávist Antonia a Prospera má svou obdobu například ve hrách Jak se vám líbí, Richard III., Hamlet a Král Lear. Stefano a Trinkulo uzavírají dlouhou řadu shakespearovských šašků, a tak dále. Jestliže Bouře nejvíc připomíná Sen noci svatojánské, tak nejen proto, že Ariel má podobnou divadelní funkci jako Puk, že lidský svět se v obou hrách prolíná se světem nadpřirozeným a že obě hry sdílejí umocněný prvek rituálnosti. Spojuje je především bytostně shakespearovské téma iluze a skutečnosti, zdání a bytí, a téma věčných proměn v čase. Prosperovy knihy, univerzální text skrytý v textu Shakespearovy hry, obsahují nejen skryté taje tohoto světa, ale v obrazném smyslu také všechny předchozí Shakespearovy hry. A jestliže se Prospero v závěru hry zříká svých knih a s nimi své moci, nemůže tento akt nepřipomenout konec Shakespearovy tvůrčí dráhy a jeho odchod z Londýna do Stratfordu. Obyčejné jevištní poznámky exeunt all a exit nabývají v Bouři zcela zvláštního a umocněného významu. Bouře je především hra konce, konce velkého shakespearovského představení. Každé představení je pomíjivé a celý svět je jeviště.

Dvousvazkový soubor dvanácti her Williama Shakespeara je výběrem toho nejlepšího z jeho dramatické tvorby. První svazek zahrnuje hry napsané a provozované v první polovině Shakespearova života v době vlády královny Alžběty I., tedy v období vrcholné renesance. Obsahuje hry: Král Richard III., Zkrocení zlé ženy, Romeo a Julie, Sen čarovné noci, Benátský kupec a Veselé paničky windsorské. Druhý svazek nás přenáší do druhé poloviny autorovy tvorby, do počátků baroka. Pevný řád světa se v jeho hrách rozpadá a autor nahlíží do nitra svých postav. Svazek obsahuje komedii Večer tříkrálový, vrcholné tragédie Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth a Král Lear a básnickou pohádku o smíření a odpuštění Bouře.
