Shakespeare in Print is a comprehensive 2003 account of Shakespeare
publishing and an indispensable research resource. Andrew Murphy
sets out the history of the Shakespeare text from the Renaissance
through to the twenty-first century, from the twin perspectives of
editing and publishing history. Murphy tackles issues of editorial
and textual theory in an accessible and engaging manner. He draws
on a wide range of archival materials and attends to topics little
explored by previous scholars, such as the importance of Scottish
and Irish editions in the eighteenth century, the rise of the
educational edition and the history and significance of mass-market
editions. The extensive appendix is an invaluable reference tool
which provides full publishing details of all single-text
Shakespeare editions up to 1709 and all collected editions up to
1821. The listing also provides details of a selected range of
major editions beyond these dates to the present day.
