Title: Not for beginners, though...
Product review: The notes in the play are extraordinary and range from debate over how lines should be punctuated to analysis of images in the text. As with any analysis, though, there is room for debate - and much of that debate is addressed in the text. I would say that this edition would be best for people who are QUITE familiar with the play already thanks to many, many re-readings.If you're just starting out with this play, this edition isn't for you. Not all of the terms are defined; if you're looking for that, there are more user-friendly editions with side-by-side notes. Also, the book can be daunting: on virtually every page, there's more commentary than play.But if you're a Shakespeare scholar and/or English teacher who wants some additional insight into the text, this is phenomenal and WELL worth the price.
