Omschrijving
There are 2,000 differences between the first quarto of Shakespeare's 'Richard III' and the version in the First Folio. This text is accompanied by collation of variations and textual notes. These argue that Shakespeare's company used a memorially reconstructed text during a touring performance which provided the manuscript for the 1597 quarto.
'Peter Davison's edition of Richard III's first quarto is outstanding and important; it is brightly committed, packed with fresh data, and even amusing … I think this edition, especially for its close, exact data on acting tours, will regard anyone concerned with the Tudor stage … Altogether this is an exuberant, scholarly, usually compelling, and ground-breaking edition of one of the most intriguing of the Spakespeare quartos.'
