Harold Bloom realiza un acercamiento literario, critico y ante todo humanista a los personajes que considera mas relevantes de Shakespeare. El primero: Falstaff.
Dos anos antes de su muerte, Harold Bloom inicio una serie de cinco libros en los que realizaba un analisis literario, critico y, ante todo humanista, de los personajes de Shakespeare. El primero se lo dedico a Falstaff con quien Bloom se sentia especialmente identificado en su forma de amar la vida.
Si Hamlet es embajador de la muerte, Falstaff lo es de la vida, Bloom, quien interpreto al Caballero Gordo en los escenarios del British Art Center de Yale y, anteriormente, en Cambridge, Massachusetts, veia a Falstaff, y a si mismo como uno de esos profesores sin colegas y con numerosos estudiantes. Influido por el personaje Shakesperiano, amo la vida, la gozo, y la enseno. No queria discipulos academicos sino seres humanos capaces de leerse y cuestionarse.
Harold Bloom makes a literary, critical and above all humanistic approach to the characters he considers most relevant in Shakespeare. The first: Falstaff. Two years before his death, Harold Bloom began a series of five books in which he carried out a literary, critical and, above all, humanistic analysis of Shakespeare’s characters. The first was dedicated to Falstaff with whom Bloom felt especially identified in his way of loving life. If Hamlet is the ambassador of death, Falstaff is the ambassador of life, Bloom, who played the Fat Knight on the stages of the British Art Center at Yale and previously in Cambridge, Massachusetts, saw Falstaff, and himself as one of those professors without colleagues and with numerous students. Influenced by the Shakespearean character, he loved life, enjoyed it, and taught it. He did not want academic disciples but human beings capable of reading and questioning themselves.
