Galatea by John Lyly

A brand new Revels Student Edition of John Lyly's most popular and enchanting play -- .

'The play is admirably edited for Revels Student Editions by Leah ScraggThe footnotes are clear and thorough, the introduction lucid and sophisticated, discussing a variety of topics and providing sufficient references to encourage further exploration.'
Jean Wilson, The TLS, May 2013


'One can have no better guide to Galatea than the editor of the present convenient paperback edition, Leah Scragg, the leading Lyly scholar of our time. . . . Her shrewd annotation, and her generous introduction that opens all the wavelengths that the play touches on, with fair-minded accounts of the stage history and of previous criticism, provide a lavish, indeed royal portal to an exquisite courtly comedy.'
Peter Saccio, Around the Globe, issue 54 (summer 2013)
