The Harvard Edition has been undertaken and the plan of it
shaped with a special view to making the Poet's pages pleasant and
attractive to general readers. A history of each play is given in its
appropriate volume. The plays are arranged in three distinct series :
Comedies, Histories, and Tragedies ; and the plays of each series pre-
sented, as nearly as may be, in the chronological order of the writing.
A special merit of this edition is, that each volume has two sets of
notes, — one mainly devoted to explaining the text, and placed at the
foot of the page, the other mostly occupied with matters of textual
comment and criticism, and printed at the end of each play. The
edition is thus admirably suited to the uses both of the general reader
and of the special student.
Horace Howard Furness: A noble edition, with happy mingle of illustration,
explanation, and keen, subtle, sympathetic criticism.
Professor Dowden : Hudson's edition takes its place beside the best work of
English Shakespeare students.
Professor C. T. Winchester : It seems to me, without question, the best edition
now printed.
Life, Art, and Characters of Shakespeare
By henry N. HUDSON.
In two volumes.
i2ino. 1003 pages. Retail prices : cloth, $4.00 ; half calf, $8.00.
Edwin Booth, the great actor and eminent Shakespearean scholar,
once said that he received more real good from the original criticisms
and suggestive comments as given by Dr. Hudson in these two books
than from any other writer on Shakespeare.
