This wide viewing is complemented by modern scholarship, which has verified and elucidated the plays texts. Nevertheless, Shakespeares plays continue to be revised.

Surveying drama intended for the serious theater, the author discusses modern versions of Shakespeares plays, especially Macbeth, Hamlet, King Lear, and The Tempest. Although the focus is always on drama, contrast is supplied by fiction stemming from Hamlet and essays inspired by King Lear.
