Titus Andronicus is one of Shakespeare's earliest and bloodiest
tragedies and was hugely successful in his lifetime. Subsequent
generations have struggled with its bold confrontation of violence
but in the 20th and 21st centuries the play has chimed with
audiences again, perhaps because of its simultaneously shocking and
playful approach to violent revenge and bodily mutilation. Jonathan
Bate's original Arden edition was first published in 1995 and has
had a significant influence on how the play has been performed and
studied in the past 20 years. This revised edition includes a new
10,000 word introductory essay in which Bate reassess his views on
the play's co-authorship with George Peele in the light of
contemporary textual scholarship and updates his lively account of
the play's performance history, on the international stage and
screen. With detailed on-page commentary notes this will continue
to be the edition of choice for students, scholars and
theatre-makers.
