Description: The Tragedy of Richard the Third: with the Landing of Earle Richmond, and the Battell at Bosworth Field by William Shakespeare Extracted from the fourth folio edition [London]: Thomas Cotes, 1632. Extracted from the Second Folio edition. pp.173-204. (s-t6, u4). Text in 2 columns. Woodcut initial, head & tailpiece. (Folio) 33.3x22.5 cm (13x9"), somewhat modern quarter calf & marbled boards, gilt spine title. Very Good with some light staining and soiling to contents, a bit of edge wear. Small marginal ink notation to p. 184. Nice wide margins. Shakespeare's classic tragedy, his second longest play. The Folio and the Quarto texts of it differ and are often combined in more recent publications of the play; scholars have surmised that the Quarto was reconstructed from various actors' memories, inaccurately but usefully as it provides historical context for contemporary readers (context which would have gone without saying for its original audiences familiar with the royalty).
