"This new volume, like others in the excellent Blackwell's'Companion' series, stands apart from the crowd. It is not just aboring re-hash of well-known material but a superb, lively,genuinely stimulating collection of essays which make the playscome alive. Reading this book is rather like listening to a seriesof cracking lectures by some of the best scholars in the business... This Companion will surely become required reading foruniversity students who want an accessible but learned introductionto the texts. The essays are (without exception) so well writtenand entertaining that they can also be recommended to actors,producers, audience members, and general readers. It is well editedand attractively produced."
