«El sueño de una noche de verano» is the theatrical comedy by William Shakespeare, published by Ediciones B in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
Several couples of lovers flee to the forest, pursued by jealousy and misunderstandings, and cross paths with Oberon and Titania, the fairy kings, who are in the middle of a dispute. The sprite Puck spills a magic potion that makes the characters fall in love with the least expected person, while a group of craftsmen rehearses a comedy for the duke's wedding.
The play was originally published in 1595. This Spanish edition, translated by Jaime Navarra Farré, appeared in 1999.
For readers new to classical theater, literature students, and Shakespeare enthusiasts.
William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" or simply "the Bard". His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, 3 long narrative poems and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright. Shakespeare remains arguably the most influential writer in the English language, and his works continue to be studied and reinterpreted.
