The Tempest

This edition of Shakespeare's "The Tempest" is part of a series with a fully annotated text, helpful sections at the front and back and a wide range of questions for students, as well as the background to Shakespeare's England. The text is unabridged and a detailed introduction provides insight into the characters and an overview of the storyline. Brief descriptions of the action at the beginning of each scene help students to keep up with the plot and difficult words and obscure phrases are explained as they occur. The pages are divided into two columns so that the text and notes appear side-by-side. This text is aimed at students from the age of 14 to 16.
