Shakespeare Summary

Shakespeare by Stanley W. Wells

This volume, an updated and revised version of the Bibliographical Guide published in 1974, includes nine new chapters. Like its predecessor, it aims to help readers deal with the immense amount of scholarly and critical writings on Shakespeare. The contributors provide critical guides to reading in their allotted areas. The bulk of the volume is made up of chapters on separate works or groups of works. Other chapters are devoted to the studies 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. Full references are given for all the writings mentioned.
