内容説明
Dark and violent, Macbeth is also the most theatrically spectacular of Shakespeare's tragedies. Indeed, for 250 years - until early this century - it was performed with grand operatic additions set to baroque music. In his introduction Nicholas Brooke relates the play's chaning fortunes to changes within society and the theatre and investigates the sources of its enduring appeal. He examines its many layers of illusion and interprets its linguistic turns and echoes, arguing that the earliest surviving text is an adaptation, perhaps carried out by Shakespeare himself in collaboration with Thomas Middleton. This fully annotated edition reconsiders textual and staging problems, appraises past and present critical views, and represents a major contribution to our understanding of Macbeth . This book is intended for students and teachers of Shakespeare from A-level upwards. Students of English Literature, drama, tragedy, seventeenth century literature. Actors and playgoers.

内容説明
"Macbeth", probably written in 1606, was not printed until the First Folio in 1623, and the text that survives shows signs of adaptation in the interim. Not only is it much shorter than Shakespeare's other tragedies, the Folio text also includes material that seems not to have been written by Shakespeare, and suggests adaptation by Middleton in the period between the first performance of "Macbeth" and the First Folio. These and other problem passages are discussed in Nicholas Brooke's introduction and annotation, and there is also a stage history of this notoriously unlucky, yet enormously popular play.
