Description
This Norton Critical Edition includes:
The 1633 quarto (Q) text-the only authoritative version-with modernised spelling and silent alteration of obvious errors, of confusing punctuation and of word-form changes. A Textual Notes section follows the play.
Editorial matter by Lloyd Kermode.
Six illustrations and one map.
An unusually rich selection of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century contexts, thematically organised to promote classroom discussion. Topics include "Theater and Marlowe", "Machiavelli and Mediterranean Identities" and "Ideas of the Jew".
Twenty-seven critical interpretations spanning three centuries and including seven considerations of The Jew of Malta in performance.
A chronology and a selected bibliography.
