Sobre la figura de Shakespeare se sabe muy poco y se ha especulado mucho, probablemente demasiado. Con su habitual sabiduría, ironía y buen gusto, Bill Bryson prefiere explicarnos los hechos probados de la vida y la época de Shakespeare, y desmonta muchos de los mitos que lo rodean. Gracias a ello, este audiolibro es quizás la mejor manera de introducirse en el universo del genial dramaturgo inglés.

Story0
Nel 2016 ricorrono i quattrocento anni dalla morte di William Shakespeare. In realtà, nel 1616 morì un attore semianalfabeta di Stratford che si era impossessato del nome d'arte e delle opere di due italiani, Michelangelo e Giovanni Florio, padre e figlio emigrati in Inghilterra perché ricercati dall'Inquisizione. Negli ultimi quattro secoli sono stati occultati e forse distrutti documenti e scritti che conducevano a una verità diversa da quella che oggi conosciamo. Ma un delitto, si dice, non è mai perfetto. Non s'immaginava, infatti, che nelle opere di Shakespeare esistessero messaggi in codice, frasi apparentemente banali e prive di senso contenenti informazioni indirizzate ai pochi in grado di decifrarle.

In 2020 she flies to Cyprus to bring three blind dogs to France. Whilst on the island she meets Shakespeare, a dog that has sat “frozen “in a concrete corner for five years.

Das England des 16. Jahrhunderts war eine brutale Welt, geprägt von politischen Intrigen, religiösen Kämpfen und grassierenden Seuchen. Und dennoch wurde das elisabethanische Zeitalter zu einer überragenden Blütezeit der englischen Literatur. Ihr Wegbereiter war Christopher Marlowe: Im gleichen Jahr wie William Shakespeare wurde er als Sohn eines Schusters geboren. Allen Widrigkeiten zum Trotz erkämpfte er sich ein Stipendium in Cambridge, ließ sich in den Spionagedienst der Königin verwickeln und schuf einige der spektakulärsten Meisterwerke der englischen Literatur.

For almost two centuries after his death, Shakespeare had no biography. The makings of one were not available. No chronology had been devised by which to coordinate the events in his life with the writing of his works. Nor was there an archive of primary materials on which to base a life. And the only work by Shakespeare written in the first person, the Sonnets, had yet to be critically edited and incorporated into the canon. Without a biography, how could Shakespeare have been valued and understood?
