Complete Works: William Shakespeare RSC
Developed in partnership with The Royal Shakespeare Company, this
fresh new Complete Works combines the very latest scholarship
with elegant writing and design. It boasts a wealth of features
that will appeal to public and academic libraries, teachers,
students and lovers of Shakespeare everywhere, including:
A definitive modernized edition of Shakespeare´s text based
on the 1623 First Folio (the first and original Complete Works
lovingly assembled by Shakespeare´s fellow actors and the
version of Shakespeare´s text preferred by many actors and
directors today); Thought-provoking essays on each play and a
superb general introduction by Professor Jonathan Bate;
Jargon-free on-page notes which explain words or references
unfamiliar to modern audiences; Photographs of classic or unusual
performances; Clear, single-column page design, with plenty of
space for writing notes; A key facts ´box´ for each
play which summarises the plot, major roles, language and
sources.
Leading the editorial team is renowned Shakespearean scholar
Professor Jonathan Bate who has worked in close collaboration
over many years with the artists and archivists at the RSC. His
introductions and notes draw on a unique wealth of experience and
resources and will help the reader to understand
Shakespeare´s plays as they were originally intended - as
living theatre to be enjoyed and performed.
