Inspirándose en una antigua leyenda acerca de la rivalidad entre dos familias de la Italia medieval, William Shakespeare (1564-1616) encarnó en la tragedía de Romeo y Julieta el símbolo universal por excelecia del amor juvenil contrariado. La feroz enemistad en tre el clan de los Capuletos y el de los Montescos no consigue, en efecto, evitar que dos jóvenes miembros de éstos se enamoren y lleguen a casarse en secreto, unión que la oposición de sus progenitores y las pasiones ajenas tornarán funesta. La obra, que ha emocionado a lectores de todos los tiempos, ha atraído en nuestra época, por su poderosa fuerza dramática, la atención de numerosos cineastas, coreógrafos y compositores, que la han hecho objeto de las más variadas versiones y adaptaciones.
