Publisher's Synopsis
These volumes have been a principal source of study and research about Shakespeare for many years, as it lays threadbare what is known and available of his many works, and his intellect both as a poet and a playwright. It is the most comprehensive selection of his works ever produced in a set and includes the complete original texts of all his plays, sonnets and poetic works, along with a general introduction on his life by Edward Dowden. This set, in fact, forms a complete library of the works of Shakespeare.
