ROMEO AND JULIET - WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE KARTONIE...

This innovative edition offers modernized texts not only of the 1599 quarto but also of the
short  or 'bad'  quarto of 1597  regarding each as witness to a 'mobile text' which changed in
composition as Shakespeare wrote it and which has continued to evolve throughout its richly
varied history  both in the theatre and in film  television  opera  and ballet. The more
familiar 1599 text is accompanied by a detailed explanatory commentary. The Introduction traces
the Romeo and Juliet narrative from its origins in myth through its adaptation in the novella 
and shows how Shakespeare's transmutation of the story reflects contemporary concerns with love
death  adolescence  and patriarchism.
