Description

The Annotated Shakespeare series enables readers to fully understand and enjoy the plays of the world’s greatest dramatist Treacherous, power-hungry, untempered by moral restraint, and embittered by physical deformity, Richard, the younger brother of King Edward IV, is ablaze with ambition to take England’s throne.

Richard III, Shakespeare’s long chronicle of Richard’s machinations to be king, is a tale of murder upon murder.

He gains the throne, but only briefly. In a terrible dream, the ghosts of his victims visit the now-despised monarch to foretell his demise.

Richard’s death in battle the next day concludes his reign of evil, ushering in at last a new and hopeful era of peace for England. This fully annotated version of Richard III makes the play completely accessible to readers in the twenty-first century.

It has been carefully assembled with students, teachers, and the general reader in mind.

Eminent linguist and translator Burton Raffel offers generous help with vocabulary and usage of Elizabethan English, pronunciation, prosody, and alternative readings of phrases and lines.

His on-page annotations provide readers with all the tools they need to comprehend the play and begin to explore its many possible interpretations.
