Riassunto

A wandering prince, perilous seas, and the hope of reunion.

Shakespeare’s Pericles, Prince of Tyre is a tale of adventure, loss, and restoration that carries its hero across the Mediterranean world. Fleeing a deadly riddle, Pericles journeys through storms, shipwrecks, and strange kingdoms. He finds love, suffers devastating loss, and endures years of exile before the possibility of miraculous reunion with his family.

Part romance, part tragedy, and part adventure story, Pericles combines thrilling spectacle with some of Shakespeare’s most moving scenes of endurance and redemption. Though written in collaboration (likely with George Wilkins), the play’s later acts bear Shakespeare’s unmistakable touch, including powerful moments of grief, wonder, and forgiveness.

This TritonLit Shakespeare Series edition presents the full, unabridged text with:

• Scene-by-scene summaries for clarity

• Annotations to explain language, imagery, and references

• Historical and cultural context on the romance tradition and stage history

• Critical insights into themes of fate, loss, and renewal
