Edited, Introduced, and Annotated by Cedric Watts, M.A., Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of English, University of Sussex
The Wordsworth Classics' Shakespeare Series, with Henry V and The Merchant of Venice as its inaugural volumes, presents a newly-edited sequence of William Shakespeare's works. The textual editing reflects recent scholarship while providing the material a careful reappraisal.
Othello has long been recognised as one of the most powerful of Shakespeare’s tragedies. This intense drama explores themes of:
Desdemona’s love for Othello, the Moor, transcends racial prejudice, but the envious Iago conspires to devastate their lives.
In its vivid portrayal of racism, sexism, contested identities, and the savagery lurking within civilisation, Othello stands out as one of Shakespeare’s most topical and accessible tragedies from his major phase as a dramatist.
Productions on stage and screen regularly renew its power to engross, impress, and trouble the imagination.
