Tragedies Volume 2 (Shakespeare's Tragedies) - Hardcover
Volume 1 of the new Everyman Shakespeare, published in 1992, included the four major tragedies; "Hamlet", "King Lear", "Othello" and "Macbeth". Volume 2 completes the survey of Shakespeare's tragic output with "Romeo and Juliet", "Julius Caesar", "Antony and Cleopatra", "Coriolanus", "Troilus and Cressida" and "Titus Andronicus". The edited texts of the plays are supplemented with bibliographies, a chronology of Shakespeare's life and times, and an introduction in which Professor Tony Tanner examines Shakespeare's evolution as a tragedian while also providing detailed discussions of the individual plays. The two-volume edition of the tragedies will eventually form part of a complete Shakespeare (plays and poems) in eight volumes.

From the Inside Flap:
An appealing collection of the great tragedies of Shakespeare, these plays express the full force of his dramatic and psychological insight, exploring the fatal flaws that lead to the fall of the mighty from good fortune. The hesitant vengefulness of Hamlet; the vain selfishness of Lear; the irrational jealousy of Othello; the cunning destructiveness of Iago; the romantic impulsiveness of Romeo; the murderous ambition of Lady Macbeth--all of these characters are burned into the collective psyche of world culture.
From the Back Cover:
Just why the history of Rome was so important to the Elizabethans, and how and to what ends Shakespeare imaginatively deployed that history, will be made a little clearer in the course of this introduction.
