Description
1900 Plays of Shakespeare Lamb Romeo Juliet Othello Hamlet Paget Color Illustrated
In the early 19th-century, the plays of William Shakespeare were immensely popular throughout Europe, especially in Britain. However, the works themselves were more difficult to comprehend for younger audiences. Charles Lamb, and his sister Mary, sought to make the stories of Shakespeare familiar and accessible to young readers. Though, whenever possible, Lamb incorporated as much of Shakespeare’s own words into the works as possible.
This finely illustrated, turn of the century edition includes notable Shakespearean works such as ‘Romeo and Julie’, ‘The Tempest’, ‘Othello’ and ‘Macbeth’. Illustrations by J. Paget.
