Excerpt from The Works of William Shakespeare: In Reduced Facsimile From the Famous First Folio Edition of 1623 Several instances Heminge and Condell used printed copies of the old quarto editions, in which were certain manuscript alterations, some of the latter being valuable, but others. The reverse. Horne Tooke, indeed, inconsiderately followed by numerous others, goes so far as to say that the First Folio is the only edition worth regarding; adding, it is much to be wished that an edition of Shakespeare were given literatihz according to the First Folio, which is now become so scarce and dear that few persons can obtain it; for, by the presumptuous license of the dwarfish commentators, we risk the loss of Shake speare's genuine text which that Folio assuredly contains, notwithstanding some few slight errors of the press. Horne Tooke was not so well read as were the commentators, none of whom could have exhibited such an entire ignorance of the value of the Quartos. Every one, however, who has really studied the question, must admit that his opinion is correct in regard to no inconsiderable portion of the F olio'volume, and that, even in those cases in which the texts of 'the Quartos are on the whole to be preferred, no student of Shakespeare could possibly dispense with' incessant references to the collective.

Excerpt from Hamlet: Parallel Texts of the First and Second Quartos and the First Folio The aim of the present volume is simply to place before the reader exact reprint« of the two earliest Quartos and the first Folio text of Hamlet arranged in parallel columns for ready reference. Collations of other editions would, of course, also have been desirable, but a« these would have inconveniently swelled the bulk of the volume, and are easily accessible in the Cambridge Edition, or in Furness's Variorum Shakespeare, they have been dispensed with. The First Quarto (Q1), of 1603, is here reprinted from the facsimile in photo-lithography by W. Griggs, reproduced from the Duke of Devonshire's copy, the last leaf, which is wanting in the Duke's copy, being supplied from that in the British Museum. Its title is as follows: The | Tragicall Historie of | Hamlet | Prince of Denmarke | By William Shakespeare. | As it hath beene diuerse times acted by his Highnesse fer- | uante in the Cittie of London: as also in the two V- | niuersities of Cambridge and Oxford, and else-where | [Vignette.] | At London printed for N. L. and Iohn Trundell. | 1603. Our reprint of the Second Quarto (Q2), of 1604, is likewise made from Mr. Griggs's facsimile in photo-lithography of the Duke of Devonshire's copy of the original, with the following title-page: The | Tragicall Historie of | Hamlet, | Prince of Denmarke. | By William Shakespeare. | Newly imprinted and enlarged to almost as much | againe as it was, according to the true and perfect | Coppie. | [Vignette.] | At London, | Printed by I. R. for N. L. and are to be fold at his | shoppe vnder Saint Dunstons Church in | Fleetstreet. 1604. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The first biography of Henry and Emily Folger, who acquired the largest and finest collection of Shakespeare in the world. In Collecting Shakespeare, Stephen H. Grant recounts the American success story of Henry and Emily Folger of Brooklyn, a couple who were devoted to each other, in love with Shakespeare, and bitten by the collecting bug. Shortly after marrying in 1885, the Folgers started buying, cataloging, and storing all manner of items about Shakespeare and his era. Emily earned a master's degree in Shakespeare studies. The frugal couple worked passionately as a tight-knit team during the Gilded Age, financing their hobby with the fortune Henry earned as president of Standard Oil Company of New York, where he was a trusted associate of John D. Rockefeller Sr. While a number of American universities offered to house the collection, the Folgers wanted to give it to the American people. Afraid the price of antiquarian books would soar if their names were revealed, they secretly acquired prime real estate on Capitol Hill near the Library of Congress. They commissioned the design and construction of an elegant building with a reading room, public exhibition hall, and the Elizabethan Theatre. The Folger Shakespeare Library was dedicated on the Bard's birthday, April 23, 1932. The library houses 82 First Folios, 275,000 books, and 60,000 manuscripts. It welcomes more than 100,000 visitors a year and provides professors, scholars, graduate students, and researchers from around the world with access to the collections. It is also a vibrant center in Washington, D.C., for cultural programs, including theater, concerts, lectures, and poetry readings. The library provided Grant with unprecedented access to the primary sources within the Folger vault. He draws on interviews with surviving Folger relatives and visits to 35 related archives in the United States and in Britain to create a portrait of the remarkable couple who ensured that Shakespeare would have a beautiful home in America.

"In this provocative study one of America's foremost Shakespeare scholars examines the nature and origin of the early editions of an important group of Shakespeare's plays, those for which there exist, besides the text in the First Folio, one or more versions in quarto form. He also warns against some tendencies in the current "bibliographical school" of Shakespearean textual criticism."--Jacket.

Excerpt from Four Quarto: Editions of Plays by Shakespeare, the Property of the Trustees and Guardians of Shakespeare's Birthplace First Folio; Pericles was first associated with Shakespeare's collected works in an appendix to the Third Folio (of 1664). The separate quarto editions of the seventeen plays by Shakespeare, which were printed in his lifetime or before the issue of the First Folio, form, in the absence of his manuscripts, the most interesting and the most valuable personal memorials of his work which are now accessible. The conditions, in which plays were at the time supplied by dramatists to the theatre, render it improbable that Shakespeare was himself responsible for the publication of these quartos. There can be small doubt that they were publisher's ventures which were undertaken independently of his control or wish. They differ very greatly in textual accuracy and authority.
