Description
Edited, introduced and annotated by Cedric Watts, M.A., Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of English, University of Sussex. The Winter's Tale, one of Shakespeare's later romantic comedies, offers a striking and challenging mixture of tragic and violent events, lyrical love-speeches, farcical comedy, pastoral song and dance, and, eventually, dramatic revelations and reunions.
Thematically, there is a rich orchestration of the contrasts between age and youth, corruption and innocence, decline and regeneration.
Both Leontes' murderous jealousy and Perdita's love-relationship with Florizel are eloquently intense.
In the theatre, The Winter's Tale often proves to be diversely entertaining and deeply moving.
