Excerpt from The Text of Shakespeare Vindicated From the Interpolations and Corruptions Advocated
Puck is therefore still at work, and we have in Mr. Collier's book one of his promised vagaries. I owe the above version of the German to a fair friend, who has admirably rendered the spirit of the whole poem. While I write this I learn that Tieck, celebrated for his enthusiastic love of Shakespeare no less than for his own highly poetical dramatic talent, has paid the last debt of nature, full of years as of fame.

Excerpt from The Text of Shakespeare Vindicated From the Interpolations and Corruptions Advocated
Bentley, in his "Dissertation on the Epistles of Phalaris," relates that: "The great Scaliger published a few Iambics, as a choice fragment of an old tragedian, given him by Muretus; who soon after confessed the jest, that they were made by himself." I should have thought that Mr. Collier, in the same manner, meant to mystify the Shakespearian Scaligers of this age by the publication of his volume of "Notes and Emendations;" but as he had formerly evinced such praiseworthy respect for the remains of our great poet, and had been such a staunch defender of the integrity of the old text, I could not bring myself to believe that he would indulge in a hoax which might lead to mischievous results.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book on Shakespeare's work takes issue with a previously published volume which seeks to emend the text of Shakespeare's works by referencing purportedly newly-discovered corrections in a second folio edition. The author carefully examines these emendations and notes and argues that many of the changes proposed are unnecessary or incorrect, and that some are even harmful to the text. The author notes that numerous more-recent critics have suggested similar changes: a fact they believe weakens the case for the notes and emendations being authentic. The author also discusses the broader issue of the treatment of Shakespeare's works over time, specifically referring to the tendency to 'correct' or alter his language to make it seem more modern or palatable to contemporary audiences. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330884386_0
