Love's Labour's Lost（ISBN=9780521294317） 网盘下载 pdf 免费 2025 在线 epub 电子版

Love's Labour's Lost, the first work to bear Shakespeare's name

on its title page, differs greatly from his other early plays both

for its highly unorthodox ending and its extraordinary use of

language. This new edition presents a highly readable, modernised

text of the play, freshly edited from the first quarto published in

1598. A thorough but concise scholarly and critical commentary

provides exciting new perspectives on Love's Labour's Lost, and a

comprehensive introduction discusses the significant elements of

the play and its place in theatrical history. New critical trends

are reflected in the special attention paid to the play's

performance history since 1950, including films and adaptations,

with illustrations of several productions. Engaging and

illuminating, this will be an invaluable guide for seasoned

scholars as well as students approaching the play for the first

time.
