"The Tempest" presents some of Shakespeare's most insighful meditations on the cycle of life. Based on the first Folio text, this edition is accompanied by explanatory annotations. The play's central themes are explored in the criticism section which includes 18 essays.

This critical edition of William Shakespeare's The Tempest contains the text of the First Folio (1623), accompanied by detailed explanatory annotations. Next, a collection of works by Ovid, William Strachey, and others provides context for its major themes. Eighteen interpretive essays address such topics as the character of Caliban and the symbolism of shipwreck. Finally, 17 re-scriptings of the play—from Percy Shelley's "With a Guitar, to Jane" to Ted Hughes's "Setebos"—are presented.
