Product Description: This respected edition of Shakespeare's play contains the full text, extensive notes and supplementary material written for school use.
Book Description: John Dover Wilson's New Shakespeare, published between 1921 and 1966, became the classic Cambridge edition of Shakespeare's plays and poems until the 1980s. The series, long since out-of-print, is now reissued. Each work contains a lengthy and lively introduction, main text, and substantial notes and glossary.
Confusing page numbers ^ This edition of the text has very confusing page numbers. Rather than separating the sections by scenes and acts, the book numbers at the top 2.3.45 or 1.1.115. It makes it more difficult in a way to find specific scenes because they run together on the page rather than appear with a break between the scenes. However the Arden edition has very nice notes that help with difficult passages or references.
Not what I expected ^ This series is great for students. The books are divided into three sections: the first section is a kind of history of Shakespeare and his plays, the second section is the actual play, and the third section is more of the details of the play,i.e. where the story came from, how it is performed,how to directed the play. All in all it was a great for teaching the works of Shakespeare.
A classic ^ One of the classics -- we all had to read it in high school, but it's remarkably easier to get through than it was when I was 16.
great help for those who struggle reading ^ I purchased this for a student who struggles with reading, but wants to participate in class. This allowed person to hear words while following along in book. Perfect!
brilliance of Shakespeare ^ Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare
This is one of Shakespeares most famous plays. I really enjoyed reading Kindle edition of the play. I would recommend this ebook to anyone who is interested in history or wants to read a compelling classic.
