The New Cambridge Shakespeare appeals to readers worldwide for its up-to-date scholarship and emphasis on performance. The series, edited by an expert international team, includes all Shakespeare's plays, sonnets and poems, presented in attractively designed volumes. * Modern-spelling texts have been freshly established by each editor according to modern scholarly principles, distinguishing carefully between alternative Quarto and Folio readings * Lively introductions provide information on the date of composition, the theatrical and political context, sources, themes, language, critical reception and performance history * Informative illustrations give life to each play and cast light on a wide spectrum of historical, social and theatrical issues. Recreations of Shakespeare's stage and photographs from recent productions are included* Valuable commentary at the foot of each page explains word-meaning and allusions. * Precise details of staging and performance help students visualise the plays in action.* Stylish and spacious page layout preserves an uncluttered text and allows room for the user's annotations (from Cambridge Uni Press blurb). This edition follows on from the earlier 'New Shakespeare' series. All these items are first editions. The texts with dustjacket were published from 1984-1989; those without dustjacket 1990-2012. All are in good to very good condition. There is no highlighting, annotations, marginalia or actors' notes in any of the volumes. On some of the older volumes without d/js there is occasional slight foxing on page edges. These items are only usually sold as single volumes on the internet market. Hence this is a very rare opportunity to purchase a hardback set of first editions at a reasonable price.
