Shakespeare: A Bibliographical Guide

This volume, an updated and thoroughly revised version of the Select Bibliographical Guides published in 1974, includes nine entirely new chapters; others have been rewritten by their original authors. The Guide is mainly made up of chapters on separate works or groups of works; other chaptersare devoted to more general aspects of the study of Shakespeare, to studies of his text and of his plays in relation to the theatre both of his own time and of later ages, and to recent developments in theoretical criticism. The distinguished contributors have provided critical guides to reading intheir allotted areas and full references are given in a separate section at the end of each chapter for all the writings mentioned.
