Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Studies on the Text of Shakespeare: With Numerous Emendations, and Appendices Mr. Booth´s Reprint of the ´Folio of 1623,´ which was issued in 1862, gave me the first impulse to a critical study of the text, and in the following year the first volume of the so-called ´Cambridge Shakespeare´ having made its appearance, I was gratified beyond measure with a presentation copy from the editors; and the other eight volumes followed in course from publishers and editors till I was supplied with a gift I never expected to possess, and an heirloom which I doubt not will be highly prized by my family. Mr. Booth, the publisher of the Reprint, also gifted me the two divisions containing the Histories and Tragedies, and also forwarded the ´Pericles,´ which is supplementary to the Famous First Folio. I have now for seventeen years been in possession of materials for study of a critical cast which cannot be surpassed, except it be in the gigantic undertaking of Mr. Horace Howard Furness, of Philadelphia, and his accomplished lady, the compiler of the ´Concordance to the Sonnets and Poems of Shakespeare´: works which are far beyond the means of a working mechanic now past his seventy-third year.
