The general editors of the new series of forty volumes--the renowned Shakespeareans Stephen Orgel of Stanford University and A. R. Braunmuller of UCLA--have assembled a team of eminent scholars who have, along with the general editors themselves, prepared new introductions and notes to all of Shakespeare's plays and poems. Redesigned in an easy-to-read format that preserves the favorite features of the original, including an essay on the threatrical world of Shakespeare, an introduction to the individual play, and a note on the text used. The new Pelican Shakespeare will be an excellent resource for students, teachers, and theater professioals well into the twenty-first century.
