We are used to reading the work of Shakespeare with modernised spelling, footnotes and glosses - effectively in translation. This new edition of Shakespeare's First Folio offers an authentic reading experience, allowing us to experience the unmediated original. Designed as a beautiful, modern hardback volume complete with original frontispieces, this edition takes us back to Shakespeare's own time and allows us to view his unforgettable words afresh, as he originally wrote them.
William Shakespeare was an English poet and playwright of the 16th and 17 centuries, now widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the word's pre-eminent dramatist.
