Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This authoritative edition from The Folger Shakespeare Library presents the earliest tragedy and Roman play attributed to Shakespeare. The story follows Titus Andronicus, a model Roman who has lost twenty-one of his twenty-five sons in war and kills another for perceived disloyalty. As Rome descends into chaos, Titus faces further tragedy when two of his remaining sons are sentenced to death and his daughter is raped and mutilated, prompting him to shift his loyalty to his family. Aaron the Moor, the empress's secret lover, undergoes a similar transformation; despite his villainy, he shows tenderness toward the child born from his affair. This edition features freshly edited text based on the best early printed version, full explanatory notes alongside the text, scene-by-scene plot summaries, and a key to the play's famous lines. It also includes an introduction to reading Shakespeare's language, an essay by a leading scholar offering a modern perspective, fresh images from the Folger's rare book collection, and an annotated guide for further reading.
