Product Description

Romeo and Juliet: the greatest love story? Our postmodern age revels in the passion and romance of the young lovers, but perhaps we overlook crucial subtleties in the text.

Given the tragic ending of the play, what does Shakespeare illustrate about his teen protagonists: Are they the hapless victims of fate, or are they responsible for the poor choices they make? Is their love the “real thing”, or is it self-indulgent passion run amok? These are some of the ever relevant questions discussed in this critical edition of Romeo and Juliet.
