North-Western Spanish scholars have been focused on Shakespeare�s Hamlet different adaptations and translations during several decades, especially after the publication and following performance of O Incerto Señor Don Hamlet, Príncipe de Dinamarca (1958) by Álvaro Cunqueiro. However, few critics have analysed the concise adaptation Función de Romeo e Xulieta, Famosos Namorados published in The Chroniles of the Subchantor (1956) by Cunqueiro himself. In this article, we will try to decipher some of the main Shakesperian characteristics in the Galician adaptation.
