Timon of Athens has struck many readers as rough and unpolished, perhaps even unfinished, though to others it has appeared as Shakespeare's most profound tragic allegory. Described by Coleridge as 'the stillborn twin of King Lear', the play has nevertheless proved brilliantly effective in performance over the past thirty or forty years. This edition accepts and contributes to the growing scholarly consensus that the play is not Shakespeare's solo work, but is the result of his collaboration with Thomas Middleton, who wrote about a third of it. The editors offer an account of the process of collaboration and discuss the different ways that each author contributes to the play's relentless look at the corruption and greed of society. They provide, as well, detailed annotation of the text and explore the wide range of critical and theatrical interpretations that the play has engendered. Tracing both its satirical and tragic strains, their introduction presents a perspective on the play's meanings that combines careful elucidation of historical context with analysis of its relevance to modern-day society. An extensive and well-illustrated account of the play's production history generates a rich sense of how the play can speak to different historical moments in specific and rewarding ways.

This is the first full-scale edition of Cymbeline for 37 years. During that time, there has been considerable interest in Shakespeare's late work in the theatre, and several notable productions have demonstrated the powerful impact of Cymbeline. Based firmly on Roger Warren's extensive experience of the play in rehearsal and performance, this edition shows how Shakespeare draws upon a wide range of sources to create a self-sufficient dramatic universe, combining virtuoso theatrical and poetic means to present a story of a marriage imperilled by mistrust and painfully rebuilt through the physical and spiritual journeys undertaken by the heroine and hero, set in a context of international conflict. A full and detailed commentary pays close attention to the play's complex, evocative language. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Critically acclaimed as one of Shakespeare's most complex and intriguing plays, "Twelfth Night" is a classic romantic comedy of mistaken identities. This book explores the factors that make up the play's textual, theatrical, critical and cultural history. It surveys the play's production and reception and emphasizes the role of the spectator.
Der Wetteinsatz ist ein Pfund menschliches Fleisch, das Spielbrett eine verschwenderische Gesellschaft. Shylock ist Jude und darf Geld verleihen. Man braucht ihn, denn ständig hat einer Ebbe in der Kasse. Aber man verachtet ihn dafür. Als er auf sein Recht pocht, fällt die Maske der Gesellschaft ... Shakespeares Komödie verursacht Gänsehaut. Die Figur des Shylock, gnadenloses Opfer, wirft ihren Schatten weit über das Stück hinaus. Ein Regisseur des Stücks - Peter Zadek hat es erfahren müssen - kommt wegen Shylocks Zwiespältigkeit leicht in Verruf. Der Vorwurf: Antisemitismus.<br> <br> Mit Daten zu Leben und Werk, exklusiv verfasst von der Redaktion der <br> Zeitschrift für Literatur TEXT + KRITIK, und den Beiträgen zu beiden Werken aus der dritten, völlig neu bearbeiteten Auflage von Kindlers Literatur Lexikon.
The Shakespeare Folios series - offering the absolute authenticity of the First Folio in a totally accessible form. 'A quite wonderful idea... So blindingly obvious, I can't understand why nobody had thought of it before. I will certainly use the texts myself' - Peter Hall This edition accurately reproduces the text of the Shakespeare First Folio (1623), but in modern type. At a stroke the dust of ages is blown away and what Shakespeare actually intended is revealed to modern readers. Now Shakespeareans everywhere - students, actors, directors - can see for themselves what the Folio really says. As a further aid to understanding, on each opposing page the same text appears in a fully modernised version - a useful safety net whenever the Folio becomes problematic. Each volume also contains: - an introduction to the particular play - textual notes - an appendix giving variant versions from the Quarto where appropriate - a facsimile page from the First Folio
Part of the "BarnesNoble Shakespeare" series, this play sees the metamorphosis of Henry V from a wild and wayward lad into an mature adult, who embarks on an attempted conquest of France. It gives an interesting treatment of warfare.
Hamlet ist der größte Zweifler der Weltliteratur. Vor allem seine berühmte Frage nach Sein oder Nichtsein, die Frage also nach dem Sinn des Lebens inmitten von Vergänglichkeit und Tod, hat nichts von ihrer Dringlichkeit verloren. So verständlich jedoch sein Grübeln und Zögern, so großartig seine Monologe - in der Praxis ist er alles andere als ein strahlender Held: Wenn er handelt, hat es stets fatale Folgen, und Ophelia, seine Geliebte, treibt er mit seiner typisch männlichen Beziehungsunfähigkeit buchstäblich in den Wahnsinn.
