Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare early in his career about two young Italian star-crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately reconcile their feuding families. It was among Shakespeare's most popular plays during his lifetime and, along with Hamlet, is one of his most frequently performed plays. Today, the title characters are regarded as archetypal young lovers.
No por nada es un referente de la literatura universal. El lenguaje, las reacciones extremas de los personajes, la mezcla de lo trágico y lo cómico entre tantísimos otros detalles hacen de esta obra una parada obligatoria para quien tenga un poco de curiosidad por los clásicos.
