Perfect for students and professionals alike, it ships same day if ordered before noon, with guaranteed secure packaging and hassle-free returns. ## Description The New Cambridge Shakespeare appeals to students worldwide for its up-to-date scholarship and emphasis on performance. The series features line-by-line commentaries and textual notes on the plays and poems. Introductions are regularly refreshed with accounts of new critical, stage and screen interpretations. This second edition of Macbeth provides a thorough reconsideration of one of Shakespeare's most popular plays. In his introduction, A. R. Braunmuller explores Macbeth's immediate theatrical and political contexts, particularly the Gunpowder Plot, and addresses such celebrated questions as: do the Witches compel Macbeth to murder; is Lady Macbeth herself in some sense a witch; is Macduff morally culpable? A new and well-illustrated account of the play in performance examines several cinematic versions, such as those by Kurosawa and Roman Polanski, as well as other dramatic adaptations. Several possible new sources are suggested and the presence of Thomas Middleton's writing in the play is also proposed. Review: Excellent edition - Can’t beat the NCS editions. Quality printing, great footnotes and textural analysis. Review: The NCS never disappoint - The New Cambridge Shakespeare are my go-to for studying and reading Shakespeare. I’m a composer and often analyse his works to musicalise. When preparing an operatic libretto on the Bard’s works I go through several editions to help me out on my work. But the NCS are the ones I find most helpful and complete. There are plenty of notes on the text which are at the bottom of the page (which means you don’t have to flip back and forth) and the different reading of the Quarto and Folio are always clear. If you’re looking for one single edition of Macbeth (or a Shakespeare play in general) don’t look further than NCS. ## Features - New - Mint Condition - Dispatch same day for order received before 12 noon - Guaranteed packaging - No quibbles returns ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 78,463 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 23 in The Works of William Shakespeare 152 in Drama & Dramatists 689 in Drama (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 81 Reviews | ## Images ![Macbeth (The New Cambridge Shakespeare) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51NGY6cOqPL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent edition *by J***. on 29 April 2025* Can’t beat the NCS editions.
