Shakespeare's First Folio: Four Centuries of an Iconic Book
Smith, Emma (Fellow and Tutor in English, Fellow and Tutor in English, Hertford College, University of Oxford)
Just a few hundred copies of the 1623 edition of Shakespeare's collected plays exist, making it one of the most sought-after publications in history. Emma Smith explores the First Folio's post-publication life, the stories of individual copies, and the way readers, forgers, collectors, actors, scholars, and booksellers have interacted with them.
