TWELFTH NIGHT.

OS SONETOS DE SHAKESPEARE.

ROMEO AND JULIET.

KING HENRY VI.

I kissed thee ere i killed thee. No way but this, killing myself, to die upon a kiss." Othello, a soldier in the service of the Venetian Republic, is tricked by his villainous ensign, Iago, into believing that his beloved wife Desdemona is an adulteress. In a fit of emotional imbalance, Othello murders her in the most ungracious manner. What happens when he comes to know that she is innocent? One of the four great Shakespearean tragedies, Othello represents the dark side of man. This tangible drama of intense emotion has been a source of various literary and non-literary adaptations and continues to be performed in theatres."

Othello

Treated as one of the great comedy plays of Shakespeare, this presents the main plot of obstacles that occur in the union of two lovers ? Claudio and Hero. A much more interesting and entertaining sub plot runs parallel, and that heightens the humour of the situations: the 'merry war' of love between Beatrice and Benedick. The contrast between these two pairs of lovers is indeed the manner in which they exhibit their love. While Claudio and Hero are speechless when it comes to declaring their love, Benedick and Beatrice are always expressing their scorn for love, marriage and for each other. The climax is reached when Beatrice and Benedick are tricked into confessing their love for each other, Claudio is tricked into rejecting Hero at the altar. In the end, Don John the villain is captured and everyone else joins in a dance celebrating the marriages of the two couples.
