Description

The Shakespeare Folios series - offering the absolute authenticity of the First Folio in a totally accessible form. ‘These elegant, uncomplicated single-volume editions allow readers, theatre-makers and students uncluttered access to the Folio versions of the plays.

They make a far better starting point for study or staging of the plays than the conflated texts we've all carried around for years.

Try them and you'll see.' - Tom Morris, Artistic Director, Bristol Old VicThis edition accurately reproduces the text of the Shakespeare First Folio (1623), but in modern type.

At a stroke the dust of ages is blown away and what Shakespeare actually intended is revealed to modern readers. Now Shakespeareans everywhere - students, actors, directors - can see for themselves what the Folio really says. As a further aid to understanding, on each opposing page the same text appears in a fully modernised version - a useful safety net whenever the Folio becomes problematic. Each volume also contains:- an introduction to the particular play- textual notes- an appendix giving variant versions from the Quarto where appropriate- a facsimile page from the First Folio
