Descripción editorial
“Amadeus” by Peter Shaffer was first performed in 1979. The play presents an extremely fictionalized version of the lives of the great music composers Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Antonio Salieri.
According to the playwright, “Amadeus” was inspired by a short play that was written by Alexander Pushkin in the year 1830. The play was titled “Mozart and Salieri.”
The playwright has very skillfully and admirably used artistic license while portraying both Mozart and Salieri. It is generally assumed that there was some kind of antipathy between the two. It was also said that Salieri had instigated Mozart’s death, but the critics and scholars of the time did not take it seriously.
