Twelfth Night: Or, What You Will - Laurie E. Osborne - Paperback

Twelfe Night, Or What You Will was published in the 1623 Folio, long after the first recorded performance in 1602. Along with revisions and references which indicate that the play's shape changed in the intervening years, the text as first published includes numerous differences in spelling, punctuation and language which distinguish it from later texts. This edition offers the features of the first text which subtly, yet significantly, affect both interpretation and performance. As a result, the reader can approach Viola's soliloquy, for example, as it appeared when first published. This contrasts with the editions most commonly read today, which are based on an eighteenth-century revision of the original.Shakespeare, William is the author of 'Twelfth Night: Or, What You Will - Laurie E. Osborne - Paperback' with ISBN 9780133555042 and ISBN 0133555046.
