A propos de cet article

This is the Temple Edition of William Shakespeares comedy, “The Merry Wives of Windsor”. The book was edited, with a Preface, Glossary and Notes by Israel Gollancz, and published by J. M. Dent in London . This is the 8th Temple Edition, issued in November 1902. Herein one finds the comic, romantic imbroglios of the irrepressible Sir John Falstaff as he withstands the merry but well-deserved indignities contrived by Mistress Page and Mistress Ford. This play, with its attending sub-plots, provided genial whoops of laughter for theatre-goers in Shakespeare’s day. It's a lovely, petite book, measuring approximately 4" x 5 3/8", bound in maroon cloth with top edge gilt. The front cover has Shakespeare's family heraldic crest stamped in blind; the spine has the title in gilt. The fore- and bottom text-block edges are rough trimmed. Inside, the end-papers, front and back, have Shakespeare's heraldic crest printed in black and yellow. The half-title announces the series ("The Temple Shakespeare"). The frontispiece is a reproduction in miniature of the J. Cochran gravure of the Chandos Portrait of Shakespeare. This frontispiece is accompanied by a guard tissue, which has printed on it an elegy for the great Bard by Ben Johnson. The decorated title page, which is rubricated (printed in red and black), features a central vignette of of Falstaff and the Mistresses Ford and Page. On the verso of the title page is am appreciative assessment of Shakespeare’s wit, “The Common Gallant” by John Dennis. The rest of the book is lightly rubricated throughout with the act and scene numbers rendered in red. The book is bound with a silk place-marker.
