The Merry Wives of Windsor

Más información sobre el libro

Set in the Elizabethan era, this comedy revolves around the character Sir John Falstaff, a comical and overweight knight. Although nominally placed during the reign of Henry IV or early Henry V, the play reflects the everyday lives of the English middle class. The plot unfolds in Windsor, near Windsor Castle, and showcases themes of love, deception, and the cleverness of women. With its rich humor and engaging character dynamics, it has inspired numerous operatic adaptations.
