Synopsis

This major series provides the student with accessible and authoritative annotated editions of key texts in English and American literature from medieval to modern times. It provides the key teaching editions for students, academics and all those interested in literature. Since the late 1970s textual scholars, critics and editors have argued that there is no single 'King Lear' text. Anyone studying the play needs to be aware of two different texts, one based on the quarto of 1608, The History of King Lear (Q), and a revised version published in the first folio of 1623, The Tragedy of King Lear (F). This edition offers a fully annotated, modern spelling version of the texts set side by side, identifying and elucidating the major discrepancies between the two.
