Richard III | William Shakespeare
Richard III by William Shakespeare, adapted by William Mesguich
Introduction
"Richard III is undoubtedly a masterpiece among tragedies. As in Othello and Macbeth, hubris reigns from the height of its impressive stature, sweeping away bodies and consciences in a relentless bloodbath. The desire for vengeance, the thirst for power, the overwhelming drive to eliminate one’s opponents, the intimate relationship with destiny, the omens magnified by ghostly apparitions, the haunting fear of betrayal and the violence of punishment make up this maelstrom of poetry and fury". William Mesguich
