It is a captivating work of Romantic storytelling as well as the original literary homage to the Bard.… (altro)
Just to be clear, I’m not rating Shakespeare’s plays a three star. I thoroughly enjoy most of his plays. What bothered me with this book was that it was intended to be for children, and I feel like the language is still quite complicated for children. So as a children’s book, I don’t think this succeeded, but it is a great way for adults to get an idea of what Shakespeare’s plays are about without having to actually read Shakespeare’s plays. ( )

The following Tales are meant to be submitted to the young reader as an introduction to the study of Shakespeare, for which purpose his words are used whoever it seemed possible to bring them in; and in whatever has been added to give them the regular form of a connected story, diligent care has been taken to select such words as might least interrupt the effect of the beautiful English tongue in which he wrote: therefore words introduced into our language since his time have been as far as possible avoided.

Descrizione del libro
Charles e Mary Lamb riscrissero le tragedie di Shakespeare all'inizio dell'Ottocento, con l'intento di proporle ai più giovani sotto forma di racconti in prosa. Questi "riassunti imperfetti", come loro stessi li definirono, sono diventati un classico della letteratura inglese. Ecco riproposti, in edizione economica, sei dei più popolari racconti: "Macbeth", "Sogno di una notte di mezza estate", "Otello", "Amleto", "Molto rumore per nulla", "Re Lear". Età di lettura: da 10 anni.
