Product code: The First Folio of Shakespeare: The Norton Facsimile, buying 1968
buying The First Folio of Shakespeare: The Norton Facsimile, 1968. One of the essential books of English literature and culture, the justly famous First Folio of Shakespeare's plays, a full-size photographic facsimile that has won the admiration of actors and scholars throughout the world. The Norton Facsimile set a new standard for scholarly accuracy. It was the first facsimile in which every page had been selected from a large number of copies in an attempt to find a clean, clear example with minimal show-through. Even more important, it offered the latest, most corrected state of pages known to vary from copy to copy because of correction at press. It introduced a standard system of reference, "through line numbering," based on the lines printed in the 1623 edition rather than on the acts, scenes, and lines of a modern edition. Missing the outer cover. Good used condition. See photos for wear & tear. No writing/highlighting in the book. This is a great gift! Ships with media mail.
