Venus and Adonis, the Rape of Lucrece
Best, Eve / Burke, David / Corbett, Clare
Features two poems that date from Shakespeare's early years. In "Venus and Adonis", the goddess of love pleads with the beautiful boy to submit to her advances and become her love - but he only wants to hunt boar. In the "Rape of Lucrece", Shakespeare draws on the Roman take of the Emperor Tarquin's desire for Lucrece and its tragic consequences.
