Matching the Bard line for line, rhyme for rhyme, Whitty illuminates Shakespeare's meaning for modern audiences while maintaining the plays storytelling architecture, emotional texture, and freewheeling humor. Designed to supplement, not supplant, the original, Whittys Midsummer cuts through the centuries to bring audiences a fresh, moment-by-moment take, designed to flow as effortlessly for modern audiences as Shakespeare's beloved classic played to the Elizabethans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis translation was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festivals Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present the work of The Bard in language accessible to modern audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare's verse. These volumes make these works available for the first time in print—a new First Folio for a new era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 127 x 197 x 10 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780866986786\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William Shakespeare,Jeffrey Whitty","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095371182330,"sku":"9780866986786","price":7.14,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646176537383_book.jpg?v=1646922944","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/a-midsummer-nights-dream-9780866986786","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
