The Winter's Tale by William Shakespeare
One of Shakespeare's late plays, The Winter's Tale falls into two distinct parts: the first part tragedy and the second, comedy. John Pitcher's lively introduction and commentary explores the extraordinary merging of theatrical forms in the play and its success in performance.
'a play where miracles do happen and redemption does eventually come, but at a terrible price' Lyn Gardner, Guardian, 229.09 'Like all of Shakespeare's later plays, this is a realistic fairy tale' John Peter, Sunday Times, 20.9.09
John Pitcher is Professor of English at St John's College, Oxford.
