Description
Publisher's Description of Macbeth by William Shakespeare (Wordsworth Classics)
Edited, introduced and annotated by Cedric Watts, M.A., Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of English, University of Sussex.
Shakespeare’s Macbeth is one of the greatest tragic dramas the world has known. Macbeth himself, a brave warrior, is fatally impelled by supernatural forces, by his proud wife, and by his own burgeoning ambition. As he embarks on his murderous course to gain and retain the crown of Scotland, we see the appalling emotional and psychological effects on both Lady Macbeth and himself. The cruel ironies of their destiny are conveyed in poetry of unsurpassed power. In the theatre, this tragedy remains perennially engrossing.
This volume is part of the Wordsworth Classics’ Shakespeare Series, in which each text has been freshly edited by Professor Cedric Watts.
Category Description for Plays
As the following plays are from two different publishers, there are some differences. Henry V and Macbeth are complete and unabridged versions of Shakespeare's works. The other four contain modernized spelling and punctuation, notes giving explanations of phrases or words used on corresponding pages, textual notes, sources and biographies.
