  Although often classed as one of Shakespeare's romantic comedies, this play is perhaps most remembered for its dramatic scenes and for the odious character of Shylock who demands his 'pound of flesh'. Part of the Barnes & Noble Shakespeare series, this title features newly edited texts prepared by leading scholars from Great Britain and America, in collaboration with one of the world's foremost Shakespeare authorities, David Scott Kastan of Columbia University. Together they have produced texts as faithful as possible to those that Shakespeare wrote.
