A propos de cet article

The authoritative Folger Shakespeare Library edition of Twelfth Night, the hilarious and heartbreaking comedy of unrequited love, featuring Shakespeare?s complete original text, expert annotations, scene-by-scene summaries, and trusted scholarship to help students, teachers, and general readers read Shakespeare with confidence.The Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, DC, is home to the world?s largest collection of Shakespeare?s printed works and an internationally recognized center for Shakespeare scholarship, performance, and education. Drawing on generations of scholarly expertise, the Folger Shakespeare Library editions combine the complete original texts of Shakespeare?s plays with accessible explanatory notes, historical context, and expert commentary, making them trusted resources for classroom study, theatrical performance, and personal reading. Read Shakespeare?s original words with the guidance to understand them. Unlike simplified retellings or modern-English translations, the Folger edition preserves Shakespeare?s language while providing the tools readers need to navigate unfamiliar vocabulary, appreciate his wit and wordplay, follow complex relationships, and explore the deeper meanings of each play. With explanatory notes conveniently placed on pages facing the text, scene-by-scene plot summaries, and insightful scholarship, this annotated edition is an excellent choice for high school and college students, AP English Literature courses, teachers, actors, book clubs, and anyone discovering Shakespeare for the first time. One of Shakespeare?s most beloved romantic comedies, Twelfth Night, or What You Will is a delightful exploration of love, mistaken identity, disguise, and desire. After a shipwreck separates twins Viola and Sebastian, Viola disguises herself as a young man named Cesario and enters the service of Duke Orsino. When Orsino sends Cesario to court the beautiful Olivia, Olivia falls in love with the disguised Viola, who has secretly fallen for Orsino herself. Meanwhile, the self-important Malvolio becomes the victim of an elaborate practical joke, adding another layer of mischief to a world where appearances are deceiving and love rarely follows a predictable path. Blending romance, comedy, music, and moments of unexpected melancholy, Twelfth Night explores timeless questions of identity, gender, friendship, longing, and the unpredictable nature of love. From its celebrated opening line, ?If music be the food of love, play on,? to its unforgettable characters and clever reversals, the play remains a favorite of readers, teachers, and theater audiences. This Folger Shakespeare Library edition includes: -Shakespeare?s complete original text, carefully edited from the best early printed version of the play -Facing-page explanatory notes that clarify difficult words, historical references, expressions, and Shakespearean wordplay -Scene-by-scene plot summaries to help readers follow the action, understand character relationships, and review important events -An introduction to Shakespeare?s language that makes the original text more accessible to students and first-time readers -A guide to famous lines and phrases, illuminating the play?s most memorable quotations -An essay by a leading Shakespeare scholar offering a modern perspective on the play and its enduring significance -Images from the Folger Shakespeare Library's extraordinary collections of rare books and historical materials -An annotated guide to further reading for students, teachers, and readers seeking deeper understanding Edited by distinguished Shakespeare scholars Barbara A. Mowat and Paul Werstine, this edition brings together authoritative textual scholarship and practical reading support in a single accessible volume.
