Published to mark the 400th anniversary of the book's original
publication, this facsimile edition faithfully reproduces one of
the finest copies held in the British Library collections. The
significance of the First Folio cannot be underestimated. It is the
only contemporary source of eighteen of Shakespeare's plays.
Without it, performances of such popular plays as The Tempest,
Twelfth Night and Macbeth would not be possible. Changes and
corrections were made during the long printing process. Small
alterations were also made to the (now iconic) portrait of
Shakespeare created by Martin Droeshout for the title page. As a
result, no two surviving copies of the First Folio are identical
and few are complete. Of the 750 copies that were originally
published, some 200 exist today. The British Library has five
copies, one of which is complete, and it is this copy that is
presented with an introductory booklet by curators Adrian S Edwards
and Tanya Kirk.

essential classics. 'Stars, hide your fires! Let not light see my
black and deep desires.' One of Shakespeare's darkest and most

three sinister witches and the power hungry desires of his wife.

literature, in compact sonnets bursting with beautiful imagery and
timeless insights about love, life, and human nature. This
