The New Cambridge Shakespeare appeals to students worldwide for its
up-to-date scholarship and emphasis on performance. The series
features line-by-line commentaries and textual notes on the plays
and poems. Introductions are regularly refreshed with accounts of
new critical, stage and screen interpretations. In this second
edition of Shakespeare's Merry Wives of Windsor David Crane
emphasises the liveliness of the play in stage terms. He also
claims that this citizen comedy was an expression of Shakespeare's
fundamental understanding of human life, conveyed centrally in the
character of Falstaff. In the process he examines Shakespeare's
free and vigorous use of different linguistic worlds. An account of
the play's textual history concludes that at the time of its
earliest performances Shakespeare's text was being adapted to
specific theatrical needs, and as much in the possession of its
players as of its author.
