Shakespeare's authentic performance texts : the case for staging from the first folio /
When we pick up a copy of a Shakespeare play, we assume that we hold in our hands an original record of his writing. We don't. Present day printings are an editor's often subjective version of the script. This volume makes the case for printing and staging the plays as set in the Folio.
