Titus Andronicus: Fourth Series. Seller Inventory # BBS-9781350078406
Synopsis:
The bloodiest and brashest of Shakespeare's plays, this revenge tragedy begins with war and ends in mutilation and cannibalism.
Acts of war and sexual violence across borders and within families highlight the importance of empire, Blackness and gender, alongside the familial and literal blood which characterise early modern and contemporary performance.
The Arden Shakespeare Fourth Series Titus Andronicus provides:
- A critical introduction to the textual, cultural and performance history
- An edition that is rooted in a Jacobean revival performance of the play
- Detailed on-the-page notes explaining language, character and performance
- A clear page layout with an easy-to-read font and single-column notes
- Images of relevant productions, paintings and texts
The Arden Shakespeare Fourth Series includes a new edition of every Shakespeare play, the poems and sonnets. Each volume is edited afresh by a leading scholar specialising in cutting-edge research on performance, gender, sexuality and race. These editions cover everything you need to know as a student, teacher, researcher, theatre-maker or performer of Shakespeare's works today.
