Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida

"This book studies a selection of variants and emendations in Troilus and Cressida with extensive reference to the theater history of the passages, showing how production decision can provide a valuable commentary on editorial questions." "Passages that have been the subject of editorial debate are examined from many points of view, beginning with the bibliographical and editorial questions. The thematic importance of the passages discussed are considered in relation to critical concerns, other versions of the Trojan War legend, and Renaissance theatrical, literary, and cultural issues. The theater history of each passage is then studied in depth, showing how performance interpretation can offer valuable and largely unexplored commentary on editorial problems." "The issues of war and gender relationships are also considered with reference to the way productions interpret and reshape the play to reflect social concerns of their audiences."--BOOK JACKET.
