Samenvatting:

In this volume, Tony Tanner introduces Shakespeare's four greatest tragedies - "Hamlet", "Othello", "Macbeth" and "King Lear".



Volume 1 of the Everyman Shakespeare, published in 1992, includes the four major tragedies: HAMLET, KING LEAR, OTHELLO and MACBETH. The authoritatively edited texts of the plays are supplemented with extensive bibliographies, a chronology of Shakespear's life and times and a substantial introduction in which Prosessor Tony Tanner examines Shakespeare's evolution as a tragedian while also providing detailed discussions of the individual plays. This is the only two-volume edition of the tragedies with such comprehensive apparatus and it will eventually form part of a complete Shakespeare (plays and poems) in eight volumes.
