Synopsis "Rey Juan (in Spanish)"

Tan popular en los siglos XVIII y XIX como soslayada desde el XX, esta obra muestra ya el gran talento de Shakespeare para concentrar en una estructura dramática una serie de hechos históricos dispersos en el tiempo, y, más importante aún, su primer gran personaje, el Bastardo Falconbridge, un hijo ilegítimo de Ricardo Corazón de León, en quien se advierte esa vida interior de la que Falstaff y Hamlet llegarían a ser los más recordables exponentes. Sobresalen también la potencia expresiva de Constanza, una madre que lucha por su hijo y lo pierde, y la aguda exploración de las zonas oscuras de la ambición y el poder.

William Shakespeare (Stratford-upon-Avon, c. April 23, 1564jul. - Ibid., April 23/May 3, 1616) was an English playwright, poet, and actor. Often known as the Bard of Avon (or simply the Bard), he is considered the most important writer in the English language and one of the most famous in world literature.

According to the Encyclopædia Britannica, "Shakespeare is generally acknowledged as the greatest of all time writers, a unique figure in the history of literature. The fame of other poets, such as Homer and Dante Alighieri, or novelists such as Leo Tolstoy or Charles Dickens, has transcended national barriers, but none has achieved the reputation of Shakespeare, whose works today are read and performed more frequently and in more countries than ever. The prophecy of one of his great contemporaries, Ben Jonson, has thus been fulfilled: 'Shakespeare does not belong to one age but to eternity'".

Among his most notable works are Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, and A Midsummer Night's Dream. His ability to portray the complexities of human nature, along with his mastery in the use of verse and language, has made him a timeless figure.
