description: The Arden Shakespeare, founded in the 1890s, has, with a continuing process of revision, established itself as the Standard scholarly edition of Shakespeare's works. Each play appears in a seperate volume with critical notes, apparatus, appendices giving extracts from the relevant sources, and a full introduction. For the general Reader and for students who want something more substantial than school texts or a one-volume Shakespeare, the Arden Edition, edited to the highest standards of modern scholarship, has continued to prove invaluable.
