Selon Wikipédia: "Périclès, prince de Tyr est une pièce jacobéenne écrite au moins en partie par William Shakespeare et incluse dans les éditions modernes de ses ?uvres rassemblées malgré des questions sur sa paternité, car elle n'était pas incluse dans le premier folio. conviennent que Shakespeare est responsable de presque exactement la moitié du jeu - 827 lignes - la partie principale après la scène 9 qui suit l'histoire de Périclès et Marina.Les études textuelles modernes indiquent que les deux premiers actes de 835 lignes détaillant les nombreux voyages de Périclès ont été écrits par un collaborateur médiocre, qui suggère fortement d'avoir été l'aviateur, pander, dramaturge et pamphlétaire George Wilkins.

The Nihilists
¥8.09
Dodo Collections brings you another classic from Oscar Wilde, The Nihilists. The Nihilists is a play by Oscar Wilde. It is a melodramatic tragedy set in Russia and is loosely based on the life of Vera Zasulich. It was Wilde's first play, and the first to be performed. In 1880, with only a few copies privately printed, arrangements were made with noted actresses for a production the United Kingdom, but this never materialized. The first ever public performance was in New York in 1883 at the Union Square Theatre based on revisions made by Wilde while lecturing in America in 1882. The play was not a success and folded after only one week. It is rarely revived. Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (16 October 1854 – 30 November 1900) was an Irish author, playwright and poet. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. He is remembered for his epigrams, his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, his plays, as well as the circumstances of his imprisonment and early death. At the height of his fame and success, while his masterpiece, The Importance of Being Earnest (1895), was still on stage in London, Wilde had the Marquess of Queensberry prosecuted for libel. The Marquess was the father of Wilde's lover, Lord Alfred Douglas. The charge carried a penalty of up to two years in prison. The trial unearthed evidence that caused Wilde to drop his charges and led to his own arrest and trial for gross indecency with other men. After two more trials he was convicted and imprisoned for two years' hard labour. In 1897, in prison, he wrote De Profundis, which was published in 1905, a long letter which discusses his spiritual journey through his trials, forming a dark counterpoint to his earlier philosophy of pleasure. Upon his release he left immediately for France, never to return to Ireland or Britain. There he wrote his last work, The Ballad of Reading Gaol (1898), a long poem commemorating the harsh rhythms of prison life. He died destitute in Paris at the age of 46.
11 Dramen
¥8.09
Eleven plays in the original German: Die Aufgeregten, Egmont, Faust, Goetz von Berlichingen, Iphigenie, Die Mitschuldigen, Die Naturliche Tochter Torquato Tasso, Satyros, Die Geschwister, and Die Laune des Verliebten. Wikipedia: "Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (* 28. August 1749 in Frankfurt am Main; ? 22. M?rz 1832 in Weimar), geadelt 1782, war ein deutscher Dichter. Er forschte und publizierte au?erdem auf verschiedenen naturwissenschaftlichen Gebieten. Ab 1776 bekleidete er am Hof von Weimar unterschiedliche politische und administrative ?mter. Goethes literarische Produktion umfasst Gedichte, Dramen, erz?hlende Werke (in Vers und Prosa), autobiografische, ?sthetische, kunst- und literaturtheoretische sowie naturwissenschaftliche Schriften. Auch sein umfangreicher Briefwechsel ist von gro?er literarischer Bedeutung. Goethe war ein Vorreiter und der wichtigste Vertreter des Sturm und Drang. Sein Roman Die Leiden des jungen Werthers machte ihn 1774 in ganz Europa berühmt. Sp?ter wandte er sich inhaltlich und formal den Idealen der Antike zu und wurde ab den 1790er Jahren, gemeinsam mit Friedrich Schiller und im Austausch mit diesem, zum wichtigsten Vertreter der Weimarer Klassik. Im Alter galt Goethe auch im Ausland als Repr?sentant des geistigen Deutschland. W?hrend die Wertsch?tzung Goethes nach seinem Tode zun?chst abnahm, wurde er im Deutschen Kaiserreich ab 1871 ?zum Kronzeugen der nationalen Identit?t der Deutschen“ und als solcher für den deutschen Nationalismus vereinnahmt. Es setzte nun eine Verehrung nicht nur des Werks, sondern auch der Pers?nlichkeit des Dichters ein, dessen Lebensführung als vorbildlich empfunden wurde. Bis heute gilt Goethe als bedeutendster deutscher Dichter, sein Werk wird zu den H?hepunkten der Weltliteratur gez?hlt."
