The authoritative edition of Troilus and Cressida from The Folger Shakespeare Library, the trusted and widely used Shakespeare series for students and general readers.

For Troilus and Cressida , set during the Trojan War, Shakespeare turned to the Greek poet Homer, whose epic poems the Iliad and the Odyssey treat the war and its aftermath, and to Geoffrey Chaucer, author of The Canterbury Tales, and the great romance of the war, Troilus and Criseyde. This edition includes:

Freshly edited text based on the best early printed version of the play
Full explanatory notes conveniently placed on pages facing the text of the play

A key to the play’s famous lines and phrases
An introduction to reading Shakespeare’s language
An essay by a leading Shakespeare scholar providing a modern perspective on the play
Fresh images from the Folger Shakespeare Library’s vast holdings of rare books
An annotated guide to further reading
