William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet, and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "the Bard"). His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, three long narrative poems, and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright. Shakespeare remains arguably the most influential writer in the English language, and his works continue to be studied and reinterpreted.
Shakespeare was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire. At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway, with whom he had three children: Susanna, and twins Hamnet and Judith. Sometime between 1585 and 1592, he began a successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part-owner ("sharer") of a playing company called the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men after the ascension of King James VI and I of Scotland to the English throne. At age 49 (around 1613), he appears to have retired to Stratford, where he died three years later. Few records of Shakespeare's private life survive; this has stimulated considerable speculation about such matters as his physical appearance, his sexuality, his religious beliefs, and even certain fringe theories as to whether the works attributed to him were written by others.
Shakespeare produced most of his known works between 1589 and 1613. His early plays were primarily comedies and histories and are regarded as some of the best works produced in these genres. He then wrote mainly tragedies until 1608, among them Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth, all considered to be among the finest works in the English language. In the last phase of his life, he wrote tragicomedies (also known as romances) and collaborated with other playwrights.
Many of Shakespeare's plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy during his lifetime. However, in 1623, John Heminge and Henry Condell, two fellow actors and friends of Shakespeare's, published a more definitive text known as the First Folio, a posthumous collected edition of Shakespeare's dramatic works that includes 36 of his plays. Its Preface was a prescient poem by Ben Jonson, a former rival of Shakespeare, that hailed Shakespeare with the now famous epithet: "not of an age, but for all time".

Esta edição bilíngue reune 50 dos 154 Sonetos escritos por Shakespeare em uma tradução realmente primorosa, precisa ser um tanto poeta pra se traduzir poesia e conseguir trazer o sentimento que se quer expressar, o que vai muito alem da literalidade.

Para alguém que - como eu - está estudando tradução de poesia, ver o Ivo Barroso tentando fazer a " máquina do soneto shakespeariano" funcionar é fascinante.

Um livro traduzido que te faz questionar se é melhor seguir a estrutura ou traduzir o que se quis dizer. Eu sempre vou preferir o segunda.

Shakespeare eu te amo, mas ler uma porrada de soneto dedicado a mulher não desce nem na sapatão que sou.

Sin palabras!. Un Shakespeare de 30 años hablandole a su amada(o), solo menciona unas iniciales W.H. le describe joven, con belleza inigualable, en una posición de riqueza y poder, y él describiendose como un viejo casi cerca de su muerte, aún le faltaban años para llegar a ella. Y tan premonitorias sus palabras al decirle:"Mientras alguien vea y palpite de amor, estos versos vivirán y te darán vida". Todo enamorado deberá aprenderse al menos un soneto para decirlo a su amor, en cálida tarde y al admirar un atardecer.

No fundo a sensibilidade só virou algo natural em mim quando aceitei que existem coisas inexplicáveis, coisas que vão além do que eu traduzo como pensamentos.

Lugares que as palavras não alcançam.
Existe um lugar dentro de mim que nem eu mesmo conseguiria chegar.

As palavras desse livro, a maneira como o texto se dobra sobre ele mesmo, a maneira como a forma vira som e depois vira sensação.

Não sei. Cabe a mim honrar esse lugar.
Fundo bem fundo, difícil de mergulhar.
Esse lugar que é meu e que as vezes me dói, me ilumina e me dá coragem pra entender que meus sentimentos não são ofensas.

Vulnerável demais.
Shakespeare, amo suas palavras que me entortam e me tiram da dissimulação que tem sido viver sem prestar atenção na beleza translúcida do sentimento.
Se eu sinto é porque eu existo. E meio que é sobre.

Conseguí una edición bilingue (inglés español) y eran 40 sonetos nomas, no voy a mentir por una cuestión puramente subjetiva los primeros 20 no me gustaron y se me hizo muy cuesta arriba la lectura, pero los otros 20 sí me gustaron, de todas formas voy s dedicarme a leer primero las obras de Shakespeare que me interesan más que los sonetos.
