The Tempest: Oxford School Shakespeare (Oxford School Shakespeare Series)

I usually use 3-5 different editions in studying a script prior to performance. And this is one of my two favorites, Arden being the other.

All of the Oxford shakespeare products are very helpful to me. the definitions of uncommon Shakespeare words and images in the play have proved quite helpful. there is only one small downside for teachers; at the beginning of the play, there are summaries in layman's terms and students might use those instead of reading the actual Shakespearian text.

My sister needed this for school.

This is a wonderful publishing of The Tempest. I highly recommend this edition.

GREAT EDITION. VERY USEFUL NOTES.

ha, funny that I was asked to review Shakespeare's writing, really?:-)

thank you

Almost every page is worn and has writing & scribble all over it

There is much to recommend this: (i) the typography and overall layout makes the text supremely accessible; (ii) the use of illustrations and photographs enhances rather than detracts from the text; (iii) there are a wealth of additional resources within the publication; (iv) it easily sits within a student's backpack; (v) it is very affordable. The pointers on how to approach essays and/or exam questions concerning this play stand the test of time. The notes for teachers are equally useful for the student. The inclusion of the musical score for songs within the play is, for me, the only issue with this publication, as it fails to add significantly to understanding.

Parti mancanti e note alla fine. Sono felice do averlo rivenduto

Good, but your money is better spent on Sparknotes' No Fear Shakespeare version of the Tempest which is much more complete and much easier to understand and much more helpful.

Too many handwritten notes

Easy to read
