Featuring line-by-line commentary, fresh critical insights, and a rich examination of theatrical and cinematic adaptations, this used copy in good condition is ideal for students and professionals seeking a deeper, performance-focused understanding of Macbeth. ## 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: good job - all good Review: Sound is weak - Maybe I got the only set that is muffled for most of the playing time, but this set of CD's is difficult to hear unless you are right next to it with the volume at full blast. This makes it a poor choice for the classroom or the car. The quality of the production is excellent; the sound just can't be adjusted loudly enough to listen to easily. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,085,515 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #739 in Shakespeare Dramas & Plays #867 in British & Irish Dramas & Plays #32,376 in Literary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 80 Reviews | ## Images ![Macbeth (The New Cambridge Shakespeare) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51NGY6cOqPL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good job *by H***R on August 24, 2016* all good ### ⭐⭐ Sound is weak *by S***N on December 3, 2012* Maybe I got the only set that is muffled for most of the playing time, but this set of CD's is difficult to hear unless you are right next to it with the volume at full blast.
