Abstract

Spanish Abstract: Notas sobre el libro de James Shapiro '1599: Un año en la vida de William Shakespeare', que trata un período crucial a mitad de la carrera de Shakespeare, centrándose más especíicamente en las conexiones de Shakespeare con la atmósfera social y política de su tiempo, en el trabajo con su compañía teatral, la construcción del Globe, y la génesis de obras como 'Enrique V', 'Julio César', 'Como gustéis' y 'Hamlet', además de los primeros sonetos que aparecieron en 'El peregrino apasionado'. Algunos elementos descuidados o poco tratados por Shapiro se añaden en comentarios en cursiva.
