Description

  • Great product!

The Tempest presents some of Shakespeare€s most insightful meditations on the cycle of life€•ending and beginning, death and regeneration, bondage and freedom. This Norton Critical Edition is based on the First Folio text and is accompanied by explanatory annotations.

€œSources and Contexts€ offers a rich collection of documents on the play€s central themes€•magic and witchcraft, politics and religion, geography and travel. Writers include Ovid, Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, Gabriel Naud©, Michel de Montaigne, and William Strachey.

€œCriticism€ collects eighteen responses to The Tempest, from John Dryden and Samuel Taylor Coleridge to Stephen Orgel and Leah Marcus. €œRewritings and Appropriations€ includes creative reactions to The Tempest, by playwrights, filmmakers, and poets, among them H.D., Peter Greenaway, and Ted Hughes.

A Selected Bibliography is also included.
