The Cambridge Introduction to Shakespeare (Cambridge Introductions to Literature)
"I'll be entirely happy to recommend this to students. It's accessible, it's divided up by topic in a way that reflects the different approaches one might take to Shakespeare in class (e.g. structure/genre, historical context), the suggestions for further reading are realistic and helpful and include well-chosen online materials, and it's framed in a way that invites further discussion either in the classroom or in the study."- Dr. Tom Rutter, Sheffield Hallam University
