The famous tragedies

1595 1601 1603

1605 1606 1606

FROM off a hill whose concave womb rewordedA plaintful story from a sistering vale,My spirits to attend this double voice accorded,And down I laid to list the sad-tuned tale;Ere long espied a fickle maid full pale,Tearing of papers, breaking rings a-twain,Storming her world with sorrow's wind and rain.

Upon her head a platted hive of straw,Which fortified her visage from the sun,Whereon the thought might think sometime it sawThe carcass of beauty spent and done:Time had not scythed all that youth begun,Nor youth all quit; but, spite of heaven's fell rage,Some beauty peep'd through lattice of sear'd age.

POEM

The globe teather

In the Isabel age, the teathers become more importants, and the nobles financed the plays. The globe teather is the most famous teather built in shakespeare´s times.
