Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra: With Introduction, and Notes Explanatory and Critical (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra: With Introduction, and Notes Explanatory and Critical<br/>I must add that the original text of this play is not very well printed, even for that time or that volume, and has a number of corruptions that are exceedingly trying to an editor. And, indeed, the style of the play is so super1a tively idiomatic, and abounds in such splendid audacities of diction and imagery, that it might well be very puzzling to any transcriber or printer or proof-reader, unless the author's hand-writing were much plainer than it appears to have been, from the specimens that have come down to us.<br/>About the Publisher<br/>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
