The Necessary Shakespeare, 5th edition

Throughout the flexible online environment of REVEL™, The Necessary Shakespeare showcases Shakespeare’s proficiency through different genres. It comprises 20 plays and some of the sonnets–and is arranged to emulate the First Folio of 1623, which categorizes his plays as comedies, histories, or tragedies. Selections are informed by feedback from instructors across the country regarding which works are truly “necessary” in the undergraduate classroom, and in many cases are widely available on film or video. The Fifth Edition borrows features in pedagogy and approach from Bevington’s The Complete Works of Shakespeare, a more comprehensive collection of Shakespeare’s works.
