Synopsis

This contrasts with other A-Z titles that concentrate either on a single play (as in school texts) or on biographies of Shakespeare's characters. Entries help explain Shakespeare's texts and provide the historical context needed. The wealth of information includes practical details of productions and theatre companies, terms from Elizabethan history and society, plus those used in critical reviews. Exit, pursued by a bear will bring hours of informative pleasure to anyone interested in the Bard and his work.
