Description

A magical tale of love frustrated, tested, and finally triumphant, A Midsummer Night's Dream has always been one of Shakespeare's most popular plays. It is also one of his most accessible, and its broad humor remains vivid and compelling to this day.

On the serious side, as a dramatic examination of love in all its guises - romantic, conjugal, filial, parental, and patriotic - A Midsummer Night's Dream has never been surpassed.

"And where I did begin, there shall I end."It was my first time reading Shakespeare. At the beginning I had a hard time trying to get used to the language and to the prose, but as the story went I became more confident with understanding it.Julius Caesar is the story about a man who became so powerful that it was dangerous. And a man whose ambition to keep Caesar out of the power ended up corrupting him. It's a clear sign of how cyclical time is, how the order of the universe cannot be altered and about how unpredictable history might be.I cannot say I loved it, but I really enjoyed it and had great fun analysing it.

No por la escritura, que me parece excelente, sino por gusto personal no disfrute de la historia, para mí una tragedia sin sentido propia de otra época y que, en mi opinión, no ha envejecido bien.
