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 The Two Gentlemen of Verona, Kurt Schlueter approaches
Shakespeare's early comedy as a parody of two types of Renaissance
educational fiction: the love-quest story and the
test-of-friendship story, which in combination show high-flown
human ideals as incompatible with each other and with human nature.
Since the first known production at David Garrick's Drury Lane
Theatre, the play has tempted major directors and actors, though
changing conceptions of the play often fail to recognise its
subversive impetus. This updated edition includes a new
introductory section by Lucy Munro on recent stage and critical
interpretations, bringing the thoroughly researched, illustrated
performance history up to date.
