El riquiacute;simo universo creado por Shakespeare analizado en clave filosoacute;fica; atendiendo los pocos datos biograacute;ficos del maacute;s grande de los mitos literarios y el enorme efecto que su obra tiene todaviacute;a en la Humanidad. Con la finalidad de pensar a la filosofiacute;a desde afuera de su propia historia; Tomaacute;s Abraham se propuso buscar un camino extradisciplinario; un "otro" tangencial al circuito filosoacute;fico: la literatura. iquest;Quieacute;n mejor que William Shakespeare; considerado el emblema universal literario; un poeta y dramaturgo que ademaacute;s actuoacute;; produjo y dirigioacute; sus obras; para dar forma a este desafiacute;o? Con desenfado; Abraham avanza sobre el enigma de la vida de Shakespeare mientras analiza las esteacute;ticas con que diferentes directores de cine y de teatro representaron sus obras; y el modo en que cada eacute;poca recibioacute; esas representaciones. Aquiacute;; Shakespeare se replica y esconde en sus personajes y en los dramas a pesar de sus infinitos inteacute;rpretes. La inasibilidad del Bardo de Stratford-upon-Avon estaacute; emparentada con un fantasma que se presenta en Lear; Shylock y Hamlet; un espectro que es voz y rostro; una sombra que gime y se queja por su destino. La ingratitud; la traicioacute;n y la venganza configuran el escenario de las pasiones y de cuerpos en accioacute;n. La prosa irreverente y erudita de Abraham hace de Shakespeare; el antifiloacute;sofo un libro original; una maacute;quina narrativa que combina semblanzas; historia poliacute;tica; cine; teatro; psicoanaacute;lisis; literatura y; por supuesto; filosofiacute;a.

You can dance ndash; anyone can learn to dance!By MariaBeautiful book about the importance of Cuban ballet and its influence on the early American ballet scene. I was blessed by studying ballet at the Alicia Alonso school of ballet in Havana as a little girl then after the revolution was again blessed by studying ballet for many years with her sister; Cuca Martinez - who was an inspiration in my life. This book covers the techniques; artform; and personal relationships within these geniuses of ballet art. It is a treasure and I know I will hold it dear to my heart forever.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Must reading for fans of balletBy CustomerAs a confirmed balletomane and one involved with our local Cuban Ballet School in Sarasota; I found this book fascinating and informative. The life of Alicia Alonso as portrayed here is a ballet waiting to happen.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great introduction to Cuban BalletBy Hannah BananaI enjoyed this book very much; and although it does not avoid discussing difficult topics; it still comes off a little bit like a puff piece on Alicia Alonso. While reading this book you really do admire her determination and work ethic and success.This does read like a fan writing about a dancer and person he loves. And that is okay; because there is a wealth of info that comes along with that all. So I give it 4 stars only because it is not an objective book; but it is still very good.
