Troilus and Cressida by David Bevington
A revised edition of this intriguing and complex play, updated to cover recent critical thinking and stage history. Troilus and Cressida is a tragedy often labelled a "problem" play because of its apparent blend of genres and its difficult themes. Set in the Trojan Wars it tells a story of doomed love and honour, offering a debased view of human nature in war-time and a stage peopled by generally unsympathetic characters. The revised edition makes an ideal text for study at undergraduate level and above.
David Bevington is the Phyllis Fay Horton Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus at the University of Chicago, USA and an internationally renowned textual editor and Shakespeare scholar.
