Tales from Shakespeare

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on accessibility for young readers, this collection retells Shakespeare's comedies and tragedies while preserving the essence of his language. The siblings Charles and Mary Lamb adapted the stories, avoiding complex historical plays and sensitive themes, yet maintained the original's spirit. By simplifying plots and removing certain subplots, they created an engaging introduction to Shakespeare's work for children. The preface, written collaboratively, sets the stage for this unique literary endeavor.
