Where it came from
This volume is part of the Nonesuch Press edition of the complete works of William Shakespeare, published between 1929 and 1933. Edited by Herbert Farjeon, the project was intended to return to the original 1623 First Folio text, stripping away the accumulated editorial changes of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to present Shakespeare’s language as it originally appeared to his contemporaries.
The design of the collection was a hallmark of the Nonesuch Press, overseen by Francis Meynell. The books were characterized by an elegant, minimalist aesthetic, featuring high-quality paper and a clean, legible typeface. The editorial choice to include the original prefatory matter alongside Farjeon’s scholarly notes was widely praised by critics for balancing historical authenticity with the requirements of a modern reader, cementing its status as a definitive edition for collectors of fine press books.
