The distinguished Pelican Shakespeare series, which has sold more than four million copies, is now completely revised and repackaged.
Each volume features:
• Authoritative, reliable texts
• High quality introductions and notes
• New, more readable trade trim size
• An essay on the theatrical world of Shakespeare and essays on Shakespeare's life and the selection of texts
