John Dover Wilson's New Shakespeare, published between 1921 and
1966, became the classic Cambridge edition of Shakespeare's plays
and poems until the 1980s. The series, long since out-of-print, is
now reissued. Each work is available both individually and as a
set, and each contains a lengthy and lively introduction, main
text, and substantial notes and glossary printed at the back. The
edition, which began with The Tempest and ended with The Sonnets,
put into practice the techniques and theories that had evolved
under the 'New Bibliography'. Remarkably by today's standards,
although it took the best part of half a century to produce, the
New Shakespeare involved only a small band of editors besides Dover
Wilson himself. As the volumes took shape, many of Dover Wilson's
textual methods acquired general acceptance and became an
established part of later editorial practice, for example in the
Arden and New Cambridge Shakespeares.
