Shakespeare's incomparable romantic comedy takes on a new and vivid life with these brilliant images by one of the twentieth century's leading illustrators. The fairy world of "A Midsummer Night's Dream is the perfect milieu for the artistry of Arthur Rackham, the popular illustrator of fairy tales who possessed a striking gift for depicting fanciful creatures. His dreamlike visions provide a series of unique portraits from the enchanted wood outside ancient Athens, where Oberon and Titania rule a kingdom of diminutive sprites. This faithful reprint offers a quality of printing and sharpness of reproduction that rivals the limited and first editions of 1908. Includes the complete text of the play, along with 40 full-color, and numerous black-and-white, illustrations.

    My favourite of all Shakespeare's works. The characters leap out of the pages and one can imagine the events through the comedic scenes when Puck and The Mechanicals appear, the sadness you feel for Helena seeing the one you love having love for another and finally the happiness that appears when the two pairs of lovers are together in the end.

  • This book is sooooo good. It gives you commentary along with the script to show you how the play was staged in the past.
