Edward Capell (1713-1781) published his landmark edition of
Shakespeare's works in ten volumes during 1767-8. It was the first
edition to be prepared from a completely new transcript from the
surviving Folio and Quartos rather than a marked-up copy of the
previous edition, and thus he inaugurated a new direction in
textual editing of Shakespeare's work. In 1779 Capell gave away the
library of books used in the preparation of his edition, and the
most valuable part of the collection, comprising 245 volumes
including his copies of the quartos, went to Trinity College.
Capell insisted his books were kept together, and they are still in
the Wren Library at the College. This catalogue was prepared in
1903 by the renowned bibliographer and specialist in early modern
drama, W. W. Greg, who became Librarian of Trinity in 1907. It
offers a fascinating insight into Capell's sources and methods.
