«Romeo i Julieta» is the tragedy by William Shakespeare, published by Vicens Vives in paperback (208 pages, in Catalan).
The story takes place in Verona, where the age-old hatred between the Capulets and the Montagues clashes with the immediate, absolute love that arises between Romeo and Juliet after they meet at a party. The play combines comic and dramatic scenes and sets amorous lyricism against a raw vision of desire, in a spiral that leads to a tragic outcome.
A volume in the Aula Literària collection, edited by Josep Maria Jaumà Muste, translated by Salvador Oliva and illustrated by Juan Ramón Alonso.
Aimed at secondary-school students; the volume includes a prologue, extensive annotations and study activities.
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.
