Whether it is the ruthless ambition of Macbeth or the folly of Lear, the irresolution of Hamlet or the suspicion of Othello, the cause of the tragedy – even when it is the murder of a king – is trifling compared to the calamity that it unleashes. Despite their flawed natures, however, the tragic protagonists all have a nobility that emphasizes the greatness of humanity. From this paradox the audience is brought to a greater understanding of – and sympathy with – suffering.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe four tragedies in this collection are accompanied by notes and an introduction to each text.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nekoto Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":67610941817106,"sku":null,"price":53.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0868\/7072\/0786\/files\/IMG-7148.webp?v=1791585319","url":"https:\/\/nekotobooks.com\/products\/four-tragedies-hamlet-othello-king-lear-macbeth-penguin-clothbound-classics","provider":"Nekoto Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
