图书简介
Bantam Classics' Three Classical Tragedies brings together three of Shakespeare's most powerful and brutal plays, Titus Andronicus, Timon of Athens, and Coriolanus. Shakespeare's earliest tragedy, Titus Andronicus, is also his bloodiest, featuring rape, murder, mutilation, and horrific cruelty. Timon of Athens is a bitter play portraying a wealthy Athenian lord's descent into hatred and spite when, after exhausting his generosity and love for others, he is betrayed by those he had considered friends. Coriolanus, Shakespeare's last tragedy, sees the arrogance of a Roman military hero clash with the people of Rome, with catastrophic consequences. Each play is accompanied by comprehensive explanatory notes, modernized spelling and punctuation, and vivid introductions, enabling contemporary readers to fully appreciate the Elizabethan English. This collection also includes an interpretive essay on film adaptations and detailed bibliographies and performance histories. For lovers of Shakespearean tragedies, this collection is a must-read.
