The Struggle for Shakespeare's Text: Twentieth-Century Editorial Theory and Practice
Egan, Gabriel (Loughborough University)
We know Shakespeare's writings only from imperfectly-made early editions, from which editors struggle to remove errors. This book analyses the controversies provoked by this struggle across the twentieth century, showing the reader why Shakespeare's texts are not settled, and why modern editors cannot agree on how they should present them.
