Excerpt from Notes and Conjectural Emendations of Certain Doubtful Passages in Shakespeare's Plays
I have not the vanity to suppose that I have often achieved this happy result, and I do not believe that more than a very few of my conjectures would be accepted by any responsible editor of Shakespeare's works indeed, were I myself in that position, it would be with fear and trembling that I should select any.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth exploration of the rarely-discussed textual ambiguities and textual corruptions that exist within the First Folio edition of Shakespeare's plays, offering both a fascinating insight into the working practices of the Elizabethan theatre and fresh interpretations of some of the Bard's most famous works. The author examines a wide range of specific examples of textual anomalies, proposing alternative readings that resolve long-standing difficulties and, in so doing, unlock new meanings and shed fresh light on Shakespeare's intentions. By placing these textual problems within the broader context of the theatrical practices of the time, the author considers the nature of Shakespeare's collaboration with his fellow playwrights. This meticulously researched and convincingly argued book is essential reading for scholars, students and anyone with an interest in the works of Shakespeare and the history of theatre.
