This concise, illustrated dictionary of Shakespeariana, compiled by
one of the best-known authorities on his works, contains
alphabetically arranged entries guiding the reader to a wealth of
information on all aspects of Shakespeare in his own time and on
his impact and influence on later ages.
Stanley Wells provides clear entries on: Shakespeare's life and
times, the sources and early publication of his works, their
performance history on stage and screen, actors such as Edmund Kean
and Kenneth Branagh, and writers especially associated with them,
operas and other musical works deriving from them, theaters,
editions, international Shakespeare organizations--in short, on all
aspects of Shakespearean interest. The volume is complemented by a
series of striking pronouncements about Shakespeare over the ages
from Jane Austen to Bernard Levin, tables providing interesting
facts about the plays, famous documents bearing Shakespeare's
signature, and a useful guide to further reading.
