The Tragedie of Hamlet, Prince of Denmarke

by William Shakespeare
Thomas Eagle
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
An exciting new edition of the most famous of Shakespeare’s great tragedies, presenting the 1623 First Folio text in a form which skilfully balances the claims of faithfulness and readability. No reader-friendly edition has ever been so close to the text of the Folio as first printed. Whilst addressing typographical errors and ambiguities, editor Thomas Eagle has been at pains to avoid unnecessary modernisation of spelling and punctuation. Simple letter substitutions (for example, s for long s, v for u) are largely sufficient to enable the play to be read and spoken with an ease which may astonish readers accustomed to modern-spelling editions. And scholars will appreciate the transparent recording of other changes. Despite the budget price this is a reader-printable eBook — print portrait on A4 or US Letter for a convenient and economical playscript to complement the screen version.
