The winter's tale

Stephen Orgel's edition considers the play in relation to Renaissance conceptions of both dramatic genre and the family, traces the changing critical and theatrical attitudes towards it, and places its psychological and dramatic conflicts within the Jacobean cultural and political context. The edition also includes a complete reprint of Shakespeare's source, 'Pandosto', by Robert Greene
