Ă propos de ce livre
The Comedy of Errors is a brilliant piece of theatrical mechanism, a story of mounting confusion involving two pairs of twins. But it also explores the relations between lovers and between husband and wife, and ends with the warmth and reconciliation of a multiple family reunion.

SCENE ONE
The action takes place in and around the âmartâ or marketplace at Ephesus, here a modern-day Mediterranean tourist resort. Within a metal-work frame, the stage is festooned with fairy lights. In the centre is a moveable unit with double doors, and an upper window, for appearances above. There are graffiti on the walls. Before the action begins, Ephesians wearing sombreros and mirrored sunglasses play 1980s pop music. Enter the DUKE of Ephesus, with AEGEON the merchant of Syracuse, and JAAILER. | |
AEGEON | Proceed Solinus, to procure my fall, And by the doom of death end woes and all. |
DUKE | Merchant of Syracusa, plead no more. I am not partial to infringe our laws.

AEGEON | Yet this my comfort: when your words are done, My woes end likewise with the evening sun. |
DUKE | Well Syracusian, say in brief the cause Why thou departedâst from thy native home, And for what cause thou camâst to Ephesus. |
AEGEON | A heavier task could not have been imposed Than I to speak my griefs unspeakable. Yet that the world may witness that my end Was wrought by nature, not by vile offence, Iâll utter what my sorrow gives me leave. In Syracusa was I born, and wed Unto a woman happy but for me, And by me happy, had not our hap been bad. With her I lived in joy, our wealth increased By prosperous voyages I often made To Epidamnum, till... |
