description For Shakespeare the main organism of relationship with contemporary society was the theater, and through his works it is possible to detect his distinctive trait, as an attentive interlocutor of social mechanisms. This article offers itself as an investigation that focuses on the role of the marginalized in society and in the theater. The difference between Shakespeare's world and ours is obvious to the eye of every reader, but it does not rule out possible convergences. Probably the best way to accentuate its value in our changing world is to see it in his world, recognizing that the two worlds, although very different, are at the same time a unity. Unity creates the need for our interpretations, but also for contradictions, which in turn explain this need.
