THE RSC SHAKESPEARE THE COMPLETE WORKS - WILLIA...

"The text of any Shakespeare play is a living negotiable entity: scholarship and theatre
practice work together to keep the plays alive and vividly present." - Greg Doran  RSC Artistic
Director Emeritus   Developed in partnership with the Royal Shakespeare Company  this Complete
Works of William Shakespeare combines exemplary textual scholarship with beautiful design.
Curated by expert editors Sir Jonathan Bate and Professor Eric Rasmussen  the text in this
collection is based on the iconic 1623 First Folio: the first and original Complete Works
lovingly assembled by Shakespeare's fellow actors  and the version of Shakespeare's text
preferred by many actors and directors today.  This stunning revised edition goes further to
present Shakespeare's plays as they were originally intended - as living theatre to be enjoyed
and performed on stage. Along with new colour photographs from a vibrant range of RSC
productions  a new Stage Notes feature documenting the staging choices in 100 RSC productions
showcases the myriad ways in which Shakespeare's plays can be brought to life.  Now featuring
the entire range of Shakespeare's plays  poems and sonnets  this edition is expanded to include
both The Passionate Pilgrim and A Lover's Complaint . Along with Bate's excellent general
introduction and short essays  this collection includes a range of aids to the reader such as
on-page notes explaining unfamiliar terms and key facts boxes providing plot summaries and
additional helpful context. A Complete Works for the 21st century  this versatile and highly
collectable edition will inspire students  theatre practitioners and lovers of Shakespeare
everywhere.
