About the Author

Richard Proudfoot served as Senior General Editor of the Arden Shakespeare for 35 years, until his retirement from King's in 1999. In 2001 The Arden Shakespeare published Proudfoot's Shakespeare: Text, Stage and Canon a critical overview of the scholarly achievements made in the field of Shakespeare studies by the end of the twentieth century.

Having graduated from King's College, London, Nicola Bennett went on to train at the Webster Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art, after which she worked for several years in the theatre. She now works in publishing, primarily as a freelance copy-editor. Her publications include the Globe quarto edition of The Merry Devil of Edmonton (2000).

Editorial Reviews

'Here in the elegant format emblematic of this collected edition … is a play entitled King Edward III … Giorgio Melchiori's introduction to the New Cambridge Edward III, together with the actual editorial presentation and appendix on the play's sources are models of learned scruple. What this superb edition compels us to keep asking is simply this: 'how did Shakespeare become Shakespeare?' Neither the history of literature nor of language provides a richer ground for wonder.' George Steiner, The Observer

'Anyone who reads through Edward III with an open mind will, I believe, accept that the Shakespeare canon is permanently enlarged. It is an exhilarating experience.' Contemporary Review
