"The Arden Shakespeare has long set the gold standard in annotated, scholarly editions of Shakespeare's plays. Each Arden edition in the Third Series offers a modernized text with comprehensive commentary notes glossing meanings, discussing staging issues and explaining literary allusions, together with a lengthy, illustrated introduction by a leading scholar exploring the play's critical, theatrical and historical contexts. The Arden editions thus offer readers an authoritative modernized text with on-screen pop up Commentary and textual notes to aid understanding, complemented by a comprehensive critical and contextual introduction" --Publishers̀ website
