Description
A Midsummer Night's Dream is a masterful blend of the supernatural and the mundane, where love is treated as both tragic and farcical. Edited, Introduced and Annotated by Cedric Watts, this annotated edition of Shakespeare's work presents a newly-edited sequence of the playwright's works, taking account of recent scholarship while giving the material a careful reappraisal. The result is a magical drama that culminates in a multiple celebration of marriage, with a rich lyricism, comedy, and transformations that have long made this one of Shakespeare's most popular works. Recent stage-productions have emphasised the enchanting, spectacular, and ambiguous aspects of this play, which continues to captivate audiences with its complex exploration of love and identity. With its carefully edited text and thoughtful introduction, this edition of A Midsummer Night's Dream is an excellent choice for anyone looking to explore Shakespeare's work.
