The late Peter Alexander's edition of William Shakespeare's complete works has long been established as one of the most authoritative and was chosen by the BBC as the basis for its televised cycle of plays. Now reset for reader convenience, the work includes a biography of the bard by Germaine Greer and an introduction by Anthony Burgess; a glossary of approximately 250 entries explaining the meaning of obsolete words and phrases; a section on the significance of the Alexander text; and more.
