Oxford World's Classics offers editions of key texts from the 4000-year-old myths of Mesopotamia to the 20th century.

DRAMA

World's Classics has an impressive and growing selection of dramat­ic works by English playwrights from the sixteenth to the twentieth centu­ries. Under the general editionship of Michael Cordner they are ideal for students. Each play has been newly edited with modernized spelling and punctuation, and offers substantial introductions that draw on the latest scholarship to discuss language, staging, and the world in which the plays were originally performed. A wealth of critical apparatus is provided — with more detailed notes that competing editions. In many cases the only reliable edition of a text is offered in paperback.

* Four Revenge Tragedies. The Spanish Tragedy. The Revenger's Trag­edy. The Revenge of Bussy D'Ambois. The Atheist's Tragedy. With Explana­tory Notes and Glossary / Ed. with an Introduction by Katharine Eisaman Maus. — Oxford-New York, 1995.

(From the paperback: The revenge tragedy florished in Britain in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Thomas Kyd's The Spanish Tragedy helped to establish the popularity of the genre, and it was followed by She Revenger's Tragedy, published anonymously and ascribed first to Ciril Toumeur and then to Thomas Middleton. George Chapman's The Revenge of Bussy D'Ambois and Toumeur's The Atheist's Tragedy appeared soon af­ter.

* Each of the four plays printed here defines the problems of the re­venge genre, often by exploiting its conventions in unexpected directions. All deal with fundamental moral questions about the meaning of justice and the lengths to which victimized individuals may go to obtain it, while register­ing the steins of life in a rigid but increasingly fragial hierarchy.
