Publisher Synopsis
"Here is an elegant and clear text for either study or the rehearsal room, notes where you need them, and the distinguished scholarship of the general editors, A. R. Braunmuller and Stephen Orgel, who understand that these are plays for performance as wellas great texts for contemplation." -Patrick Stewart"The perfect companion to enjoy the most profound stories of the human condition that Shakespeare has given us and that I have had the privilege to perform, from Othello to King Lear. "-James Earl Jones "Orgel and Braunmuller's editions of the Pelican Shakespeare are an indispensable part of my library. These introductions by great Shakespearean scholars are erudite yet accessible, and the individual editions of the plays are perfect for the rehearsal room. They combine scholastic precision with an inspiring energy that fuels everyone making Shakespeare live today." -Simon Godwin, Shakespeare Theatre Company and the National Theatre"I have been using the Pelican Shakespeare for years in my lecture course-it's invaluable."-Marjorie Garber, Harvard University Read more...
