Product Description
The best-selling complete Shakespeare in a vibrant new slipcased edition.

Lauded on publication in 1997 as the essential Shakespeare for a new generation, The Norton Shakespeare became a bestseller. The text is based on the Oxford Edition, which brings readers closer to Shakespeare's plays as they were first acted than was ever before possible. This Second Edition introduces new scholarship and editorial features that invite readers afresh to Shakespeare's plays and poems. Stephen Greenblatt's dazzling introduction, updated for this edition, creates a window into the culture of early modern England; Shakespeare's life in the theater; and the businesses of printing, publishing, and textual editing. The works themselves are enhanced with lively introductions, also updated, as well as ample glosses, annotations, a textual note, and new annotated bibliographies and filmographies. Andrew Gurr's essay, "The Shakespearean Stage"; a new timeline; new maps; a glossary of theater and printing terms; contextual documents; and redesigned genealogies provide additional help for readers.

A perfect collection of the bard's entire works! With good formatting that is lends itself to easy reading, your eyes will never tire of Elizabethan english again! A must for the lover of Master Shakespeare, or a perfect and indomitable addition to any bookshelf. Impress your friends and impress your mind! Nifty slipcase for the hardy reader and sumptuous red hard cover dictates a sylish and subtle treatment of the text that ensures return reading again and again and with editor Stephen Greenblatt at the helm this Norton Edition is at the peak of academic scrutiny and reputation. Great playwright. Great editors. GREAT BUY!
