The literary career of Edmund Malone (1741 1812), who was trained as a barrister and was called to the Irish bar in 1767, was facilitated by an inheritance of £1000 from his uncle. He moved to London permanently in May, 1777, where he renewed his acquaintance with the Shakespearian scholar George Steevens (1736 1800). His first Shakespearean endeavour was that of determining, as best he could, the chronology of Shakespeare's plays. In a short period of time, he had embarked on his own edition of Shakespeare, writing to Joseph Warton in November, 1785, "My Shakespearehardly leaves me time for eating or sleeping." He enthusiastically embarked on publishing his early results, remarking in Dec ember, 1785, to James Caulfiedl, First Ear of Charlemont (1728 1799), that "My edition of Shakespeare takes up all my time at present. I have printed about half my work, but it will be a full year before it will be completed." The edition was published in 1790. Malone died before he could complete the present edition, usually known as "The Malone-Boswell third variorum edition." As the unofficial literary executor of Malone's estate, James Bowell the younger (1778 1822) undertook the task of completing this edition. Boswell had plenty of material to work with. As Malone's biographer, Peter Martin writes, "Malone discovered more about Shakespeare's life than anyone before or since. He also discovered much about Shakespeare's immediate family. The influence of the edition would extend throughout the nineteenth century and into the modern era of Shakespearean scholarship, which while it has demonstrated that Malone made mistakes, has also confirmed his distinctions as a pioneer not simply in matters Shakespearean but in literary-historical scholarship as a profession."
