莎士比亚(William Shakespeare, 1564-1616),伟大的英国文学家。在其作品中,Hamlet( 哈姆雷特)、Othello(奥瑟罗)、King Lear(李尔王)、Macbeth (麦克白),故事均取自欧洲的历史传说。自十九世纪始,它们即被公认为是莎翁的「四大悲剧」
威廉·莎士比亚(William Shakespeare,1564--1616)欧洲文艺复兴时期最杰出的戏剧家和诗人。对他的一切现在还都有许多疑问,在没有确证之前,我们仍然沿用大家熟知的这个被称作莎士比亚的人。他读书时就卓尔不凡,可能当过教师,对诗歌和戏剧都感兴趣,在剧院干过许多行当,大概在1590年固定于伦敦的一家剧院当演员和写剧本。莎士比亚早期的创作中已显示出他人文主义思想,对当时社会的方方面面都有自己深刻的理解。对爱情、对金钱、对人性和对社会的*等都有鲜明的描写。
据说,莎士比亚留下来的剧本有37部,包括历史剧、悲剧和喜剧,当然不能简单的这样划分。著名的剧本有《亨利四世》、《仲夏夜之梦》、《威尼斯商人》、《罗密欧与朱丽叶》、《哈姆雷特》、《暴风雨》、《李尔王》和《麦克白》等;有大概154首十四行诗。
莎士比亚的成就有目共睹,所获得的世界性的赞誉不胜枚举,对世界文学的影响巨大,根据他的作品改编的各种文艺形式有很多很多。莎士比亚于1616年4月23日去世,而他出生在1564年的4月23日;也就在1616年4月23日这一天,隔海相望的西班牙大作家塞万提斯也去世了;而遥远的东方中国在1616年7月29日同样失去了大戏剧家汤显祖。

Fortinbras, the prince of Norway, arrives from conquest of England, and Hamlet's last dying wish is that Fortinbras become the new King of Denmark.
《麦克白》Macbeth 英文简介
Macbeth is one of Shakespeares greatest tragedies: a drama of crime and punishment, of temptation, guilt, remorse and retribution. The portrayals of Macbeth himself and his wife are memorably persuasive in the rendition of the psychology of ambition,rationalised treachery and eventual disillusionment. Repeatedly the rich and often sinuously complex verse gives general resonance to the particular situation, so that some of the speechesprovide enring epitomes of states of being which many of us,intermittently, may experience. Inner division, pangs of conscience, the sense of being ambushed by events, and desperatedefiance: they are there; but so too is a vitality of expression and enactment which offsets the plays sombre atmosphere.

哈姆雷特中文简介:也被翻译成《哈姆莱特》。英文原名为“The Tragedy of Hamlet,Prince of Denmark”(丹麦王子哈姆雷特的悲剧),简称Hamlet,又名王子复仇记,威廉·莎士比亚的著名悲剧之一,是莎士比亚最负盛名的剧本,同《麦克白》、《李尔王》[2]和《奥赛罗》一起组成莎士比亚“四大悲剧”。在《哈姆雷特》中,复仇的故事中交织着爱恨情愁。同时,哈姆雷特也是该剧主人公丹麦王子的名字。
麦克白中文简介:也被翻译成《麦克佩斯》。苏格兰国王邓肯的表弟麦克白将军,为国王平叛和抵御入侵立功归来,路遇三个女巫。女巫对他说了一些预言和隐语,说他将进爵为王,但他并无子嗣能继承王位,反而是同僚班柯将军的后代要做王。麦克白是有野心的英雄,他在夫人的怂恿下谋杀邓肯,做了国王。为掩人耳目和防止他人夺位,他一步步害死了邓肯的侍卫,害死了班柯,害死了贵族麦克德夫的妻子和小孩。恐惧和猜疑使麦克白心里越来越有鬼,也越来越冷酷。麦克白夫人神经失常而自杀,对他也是一大刺激。在众叛亲离的情况下,麦克白面对邓肯之子和他请来的英格兰援军的围攻,落得袅首的下场。
《李尔王》中文简介:也是威廉·莎士比亚四大悲剧之一,叙述了年事已高的李尔王意欲把国土分给3个女儿,口蜜腹剑的大女儿高纳里尔和二女儿里根赢其宠信而瓜分国土,期动荡不安的英国社会的面貌,也是作者对*王权的批判和对人性的歌颂。受狡诈冷酷的女儿和阴险残暴的女婿的*,李尔由专横暴虐、刚愎自用的统治者,一下子变成了“流浪的叫花子般的国王”,这个过程具体地反映了文艺复兴晚期封建阶级走向衰亡的历史。葛罗斯特受到作为冒险家、阴谋家的儿子陷害后所说的“城市里有*,国家发生内乱,宫廷之内潜藏着逆谋;父不父,子不子,纲常伦纪完全破灭”这番话,正点出了封建主*体、资本主义兴起的过渡时期封建伦理道德趋于崩溃,人与人之间赤裸裸的金钱关系替代旧的纲纪伦常的历史真实。
剧本真实地反映了广大人民的苦难。李尔王流落荒郊,饱尝暴风雨袭击的苦楚,随着地位的改变,他不由联想起成千上万无家可归的穷人。他激动地说:“衣不蔽体的不幸的人们,无论你们在什么地方,都得忍受这样无情的暴风雨的袭击,你们的头上没有片瓦遮身,你们的腹中饥肠雷动,你们的衣服千疮百孔,怎么抵挡得了这样的气候呢?”这段话真实地揭示了圈地运动中失地农民流落异乡、饥寒交迫的惨状。
剧本还通过李尔王的小女儿考狄利娅等正面形象,宣扬了人和人应该和谐真诚、应该尊重人格、应该平等相待的人文主义思想。但李尔的疯狂致死、考狄利娅的被害和葛罗斯特的流浪等结局,又为作品抹上了浓重的忧郁色调。
《奥赛罗》中文简介:《奥赛罗》是以15世纪末叶赛浦路斯岛作为舞台的。奥赛罗是威尼斯公国一员勇将。他与元老的女儿苔丝狄梦娜相爱。但由于他是黑人,婚事未被允许。两人只好私下成婚。奥赛罗手下有一个阴险的旗官伊阿古,一心想除掉奥赛罗。他先是向元老告密,不料却促成了两人的婚事。他又挑拨奥赛罗与苔丝狄梦娜的感情,说另一名副将凯西奥与苔丝狄梦娜关系不同寻常,并伪造了所谓定情信物等。奥赛罗信以为真,在愤怒中掐死了自己的妻子。当他得知*后,悔恨之余拔剑自刎,倒在了苔丝狄梦娜身边。
