The Oxford Shakespeare: The Complete Works

by Gary Taylor (Editor), Gary Taylor (Editor), William Shakespeare (Author), William Shakespeare (Author), Stanley W. Wells (Editor)

Synopsis

The new Oxford edition of Shakespeare's complete works reconsiders every detail of their text and presentation in the light of modern scholarship. The nature and authority of the early documents are re-examined, and the canon and chronological order of composition freshly established. Spelling and punctuation are modernized, and there is a brief introduction to each work, as well as an illuminating and informative General Introduction. OUP and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre this year embark on an official partnership to celebrate the plays both in print and performance - this reissued and rejacketed edition of the complete works underscores the commitment.
