The Tragedie of Othello, the Moore of Venice

William Shakespeare

It is amazing, beautiful, and the lines flow like a song. Very characteristic images, living, breathing. You empathize with all the heroes and fiercely despise Iago. This is certainly the highest skill, so clearly convey the characters in the play, without going into the descriptions, but only with randomly dropped phrases. Othello turned out to be an extremely tragic character.

And this topic is relevant in the current policy after two thousand years. She raises a lot of questions: Is Caesars murder a deliverance from a tyrant or a betrayal?

The Tragedy of King Lear

William Shakespeare

Finally, I met with one of the most famous plays of Shakespeare. In this work, important and interesting topics are touched: the hypocrisy of people in pursuit of wealth and power, blinding deceitful speeches and disregard for the true virtues of the soul, cruelty and hot temper, deceived hopes and disappointment in loved ones. As for the king himself, Lear appears to be a rather absurd, selfish and domineering old man, who is too used to universal worship and has lost touch with reality.

Robert E. Howard

An Irish-American warrior passes himself of as a Kurd and sets out to steal the treasure of Tartary.
