»Wer ist Prospero, und was bedeutet sein Stab? Warum verbindet er Wissen mit Magie, und welcher ist der Sinn seiner Konfrontation mit Caliban? Warum verzichtet Prospero auf seinen Zauberstab und wirft sein Buch ins Meer? Warum kehrt er wehrlos in die menschliche Welt zurück? In kaum einem andern Meisterwerk Shakespeares wurde die Antinomie zwischen der Größe des menschlichen Verstandes einerseits und der Grausamkeit der Geschichte und Zerbrechlichkeit der moralischen Ordnung andererseits so heftig zum Ausdruck gebracht wie im >Sturm<.«Jan Kott (lib)

In Titus Andronicus, William Shakespeare crafts a riveting tale of vengeance and brutality set against the backdrop of ancient Rome. This early tragedy follows the Roman general Titus as he is ensnared in a relentless cycle of revenge with Tamora, the vengeful Queen of the Goths. Renowned as Shakespeare's most violent work, the play starkly contrasts with the tastes of the Victorian era, during which it was shunned for its content. However, recent years have seen a resurgence of interest in this gripping drama. Exploring themes of power, loyalty, and the devastating consequences of retribution, Titus Andronicus offers a profound commentary on the darker aspects of human nature. This play remains a compelling study of the complexities of justice and morality, cementing its place as a significant piece in the Shakespearean canon. (lib)
