«La fierecilla domada; La comedia de las equivocaciones» is the comic theatre volume by William Shakespeare, published by Editorial Edaf in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
The book brings together two Shakespeare comedies. In «La fierecilla domada», Petruchio and Katharina star in a marital power struggle with echoes of classical comedy, identity games and disguises. In «La comedia de las equivocaciones», twins separated after a shipwreck sow confusion in Ephesus while the play questions the idea of human self-knowledge.
Edition from the Biblioteca Edaf collection, with a prologue by Antonio Ballesteros and translation by Adolfo Varela Castro.

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.
