Bedford Shakespeare Series  
Series Editor: Jean E. Howard

Designed to give students first hand knowledge of the cultural and historical contexts out of which Shakespeare's work emerges, the Bedford Shakespeare Series, facilitates a variety of approaches to Shakespeare. 

Each volume provides an authoritative edition of a widely taught play accompanied by an intriguing collection of thematically arranged historical and cultural documents (modernised and annotated) - such as maps, illustrations, facsimiles of quartos and the first folio, excerpts from conduct books, legal writings, statutes, popular ballads, homilies and playhouse records.

Each volume also includes a general introduction, glosses for the play, an introduction to each thematic unit, a headnote and annotations for each document, illustrations, a bibliography, and an index.
