This new edition of King Lear takes into account the work of the Shakespeare and Schools Project the national curriculum for English developments at GCSE and A-level and the probable development of English and Drama throughout the 1990s. Cambridge School Shakespeare considers King Lear as theatre and its text as script enabling students to inhabit the imaginative world of the play in an accessible meaningful and creative way. It approaches the play in a new way encouraging students to participate actively in examining it to work in groups as well as individually to treat the play as a script to be re-created and to explore the theatrical/dramatic qualities of the text. The editorial comments cater for students of all ages and abilities providing clear helpful guidelines for school study. The format of the plays is also designed to help both experienced and inexperienced teachers. Author: William Shakespeare Jonathan Morris Elspeth Bain Rob Smith  |
