This landmark new edition by textual  expert and General Editor of the Arden Shakespeare, Richard Proudfoot,  offers a full account of the play's text and  the evidence of  Shakespeare's hand at work in it. Fully annotated with on-page notes and  a lengthy critical introduction which also explores the play's  production history and the impact of its historical context.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo scholar could be better equipped to edit \u003ci\u003eEdward III\u003c\/i\u003e than Richard Proudfoot … His coeditor Nicola Bennett has helped him bring a long-term project to fruition. The result is an indispensable guide to the understanding and appreciation of an uneven but intriguing drama … The section of the introduction devoted to ‘the literary and dramatic reasons’ for regarding Shakespeare as part-author of \u003ci\u003eEdward III\u003c\/i\u003e is especially impressive, as it sketches the pattern of thematic and structural resemblances with \u003ci\u003eRichard II\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHenry V\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eRichard III\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Two Gentlemen of Verona\u003c\/i\u003e, and other Shakespeare plays. The place of\u003ci\u003e Edward III\u003c\/i\u003e in the Shakespeare canon seems now secure. * Bibliographical Society of America *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of illustrations General editors' preface Preface Acknowledgements Introduction King Edward III Abbreviations and references Index","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49414195347799,"sku":"9781903436387","price":17.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781903436387.jpg?v=1730522780","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/king-edward-iii-9781903436387","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
