Synopsis

A reference to William Shakespeare contains entries covering such topics as his plays, characters, and poems, along with information on theatricial terms and Shakespeare's contemporaries.

From the Inside Flap

essayist insisted that Shakespeare's play were unfit for performance?

Which two plays center on the Hundred Years' War?

In which scene of Romeo and Juliet does the nurse report--falsely--that Juliet is dead and thus seal Romeo's tragic fate?

The answers are easily found in Shakespeare A to Z, the only single-volume reference to virtually everything one needs--or wants--to know about the Bard. Wonderfully informative, this comprehensive work includes 3,000 entries and 50 illustrations.
