history and performance of the text, from publication to the
present
- annotated extracts from key contextual documents, reviews,
critical works and the text itself
- cross-references between documents and sections of the guide,
in order to suggest links between texts, contexts and
criticism
- suggestions for further reading.
Part of the Routledge Guides to Literature series, this volume
is essential reading for all those beginning detailed study of
Twelfth Night and seeking not only aguide to the play, but a way
through the wealth of contextual and critical material that
