Sparkling with the witty dialogue between Beatrice and Benedicts,
Much Ado About Nothing is one of Shakespeare's most enjoyable and
theatrically successful comedies.
This edition offers a newly edited text and an exceptionally
helpful and critically aware introduction. Paying particular
attention to analysis of the play's minor characters, Sheldon P
Zitner discusses Shakespeare's transformation of his source
material. He rethinks the attitudes to gender relations that
underlie the comedy and determine its view of marriage.
About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has

globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to
scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of
other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading

Allowing for the play's openness to reinterpretation by
successive generations of readers and performers, Zitner provides a
socially analytic stage history, advancing new views for the actor
as much as for the critic.
