Set in a courtly world of masked revels and dances, this play turns on the archetypal story of a lady falsely accused of unfaithfulness, spurned by her bridegroom, and finally vindicated and reunited with him. Villainy, schemes, and deceits threaten to darken the brilliant humor and sparkling wordplay?but the hilarious counterplot of a warring couple, Beatrice and Benedick, steals the scene as the two are finally tricked into admitting their love for each other in Shakespeare?s superb comedy of manners.

Each Edition Includes:
? Comprehensive explanatory notes
? Vivid introductions and the most up-to-date scholarship
? Clear, modernized spelling and punctuation, enabling contemporary readers to understand the Elizabethan English
? Completely updated, detailed bibliographies and performance histories
? An interpretive essay on film adaptations of the play, along with an extensive filmography
