Book excerpt: The sparkling repartee between the fair visitors from France and their hosts in Navarre, whose vow to study out of sight of woman is quickly broken, makes Love's Labour's Lost one of the most delightful and stageworthy of Shakespeare's comedies. This edition offers a number of new readings of difficult and disputed passages, together with some suggestions about the way in which the play's notorious `tangles' may have come about. The text is based on the quarto of 1598 and takes full account of the extensive scholarly study which that text has received over recent years. It offers a fascinating insight into shakespeare's mode of composition, improvisation, and revision.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love's Labour's Lost is one of William Shakespeare's early comedies, believed to have been written in the mid-1590s for a performance at the Inns of Court before Queen Elizabeth I. It follows the King of Navarre and his three companions as they attempt to swear off the company of women for three years in order to focus on study and fasting. Their subsequent infatuation with the Princess of France and her ladies makes them forsworn. In an untraditional ending for a comedy, the play closes with the death of the Princess's father, and all weddings are delayed for a year. The play draws on themes of masculine love and desire, reckoning and rationalisation, and reality versus fantasy. Though first published in quarto in 1598, the play's title page suggests a revision of an earlier version of the play. While there are no obvious sources for the play's plot, the four main characters are loosely based on historical figures. The use of apostrophes in the play's title varies in early editions, though it is most commonly given as Love's Labour's Lost.

Book excerpt: John Dover Wilson's New Shakespeare, published between 1921 and 1966, became the classic Cambridge edition of Shakespeare's plays and poems until the 1980s. The series, long since out-of-print, is now reissued. Each work is available both individually and as a set, and each contains a lengthy and lively introduction, main text, and substantial notes and glossary printed at the back. The edition, which began with The Tempest and ended with The Sonnets, put into practice the techniques and theories that had evolved under the 'New Bibliography'. Remarkably by today's standards, although it took the best part of half a century to produce, the New Shakespeare involved only a small band of editors besides Dover Wilson himself. As the volumes took shape, many of Dover Wilson's textual methods acquired general acceptance and became an established part of later editorial practice, for example in the Arden and New Cambridge Shakespeares.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love's Labour's Lost was one of Shakespeare's early comedies. It tells the story of the King of Navarre and his three companions (Lords Berowne, Dumaine, and Longaville) who, in an attempt to spend three years studying and fasting, decide to avoid the company of women. This is all thwarted however with the arrival of the Princess of France and her court ladies. Setting up camp outside the court (due to the King having imposed a ban on women inside), the Princess and her companions stir feelings of love in the men. The play is notable for the inclusion of the longest word in all of Shakespeare's plays: honorificabilitudinitatibus. One of the main themes of Love's Labour's Lost, is that of masculine desire, which throughout the play is deferred and confused. The earliest recorded performance of this play was in 1597, before Queen Elizabeth.

Book excerpt: LOVES LABOURS LOSTA most excellent reason exists for Kenneth Branagh making the decision to turn William Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost into a musical comedy when he adapted it for the screen. (Although critics and the dozen or so people who actually paid to get into a theater to watch it may disagree.) Even without Branagh's transformation of the play into a 1930s Hollywood-style musical, Love's Labour's Lost could quite accurately be termed the Bard's attempt at writing a Broadway-style musical comedy since a faithful presentation of the intact play with no cuts produces more singing than any other of his plays.That being said, it is worth pointing out that Branagh's filmed version of Love's Labour's Lost released in 2000 was the first feature film version of the play and not only was the setting updated by several centuries, but roughly two-thirds of the text was cut and additional characters not found in the original. While the film was a flop, that failure is not likely placed on those changes since perhaps more than any Shakespeare play, Love's Labour's Lost seems to be directed toward the specific aesthetic characteristics of Elizabethan courtiers. Very few people then, now or ever have any real ability to relate to the aesthetic demands of those attending Renaissance court. As a result, this very early effort by Shakespeare--perhaps his first attempt at a comedy--has never been particularly popular once production of Shakespeare's plays moved outside the environs of the aristocracy and into the theater of the people from the Globe to the Cineplex.
