The Famous Authors Series: William Shakespeare DVD OOP Biography Theatre Writer

Description: This DVD release from Kultur's "The Famous Authors Series" discusses the life of 17th century author William Shakespeare. This disc is in very good condition, plays perfectly, and includes the following write-up on back: William Shakespeare's earliest plays included the three parts of Henry VI, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, and Titus Andronicus and his first printed works were two long poems, Venus and Adonis (1593) and The Rape of Lucrece (1594). In 1594, Shakespeare joined others in forming a new theatre company, and for almost twenty years he was its regular dramatist, producing on average two plays a year. Some of Shakespeare's most famous tragedies were written in the early 1600s, including Hamlet and, after James I's accession, Othello, King Lear and Macbeth. His late plays, often known as the Romances, date from c. 1608 to 1612 and include Cymbeline, The Winter's Tale and The Tempest. In 1623, seven years after his death, the First Folio, the first collected edition of his plays, was published. It contains thirty-six plays, about half of which had been published individually in his lifetime. Pericles, not included in the First Folio, has been accepted as his, and he is known to have collaborated with John Fletcher on The Two Noble Kinsmen and a lost work, Cardenio, as well as on Henry VIII which was included in the Folio.
