The series features line-by-line commentaries and textual notes on the plays and poems. Introductions are regularly refreshed with accounts of new critical, stage and screen interpretations. This third edition of Twelfth Night retains the text edited and annotated by Elizabeth Story Donno for the first edition of 1985, and features an updated introduction by Penny Gay, which focuses on recent scholarship and performance history. Building on her Introduction to the second edition, Gay stresses the play's theatricality, its elaborate linguistic games and its complex use of Ovidian myths. She analyses the delicate balance Shakespeare strikes in Twelfth Night between romance and realism, and explores representations of gender, sexuality and identity in the text. A selection of new photographs completes the edition.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface to the first edition\u003cbr\u003e Preface\u003cbr\u003e Abbreviations and conventions\u003cbr\u003e Introduction Penny Gay\u003cbr\u003e Note on the text\u003cbr\u003e List of characters\u003cbr\u003e The play\u003cbr\u003e Textual analysis\u003cbr\u003e Reading list.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary studies: plays \u0026amp; playwrights [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: plays \u0026amp; playwrights\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20plays%20\u0026amp;%20playwrights%20%5BDSG%5D%22\"\u003eDSG\u003c\/a\u003e], Shakespeare plays [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Shakespeare plays\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Shakespeare%20plays%20%5BDDS%5D%22\"\u003eDDS\u003c\/a\u003e], Literature \u0026amp; literary studies [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literature \u0026amp; literary studies\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literature%20\u0026amp;%20literary%20studies%20%5BD%5D%22\"\u003eD\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45999530901784,"sku":"9781107565463","price":11.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781107565463i_fbc896b7-e5df-46d1-a9dc-73870d3bcff4.jpg?v=1696766272","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/twelfth-night-or-what-you-will-paperback-9781107565463","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
