The Oxford Shakespeare: The Merry Wives of Windsor (Oxford World´s Classics)
When a new play was required at short notice for a court occasion in 1597, Shakespeare created The Merry Wives of Windsor, a warm-hearted and spirited "citizen comedy" filled with boisterous action, situational irony, rich characterization--and the likes of Falstaff, Pistol, Mistress Quickly, and Justice Shallow. In his introduction and commentary, Craik examines a wide range of topics, including the play's probable occasion, its relationship to Shakespeare's English history plays and to other sources, its textual history, with particular reference to the widely diverging 1623 Folio and 1602 Quarto, and its quality as drama. In light of various topical, critical, and theatrical interpretations of the play, Craik pays particular attention to defining the literal sense, proposing some new readings, and evoking the many aspects of the stage business.About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe.

The Oxford Shakespeare: Twelfth Night, or What You Will (Oxford World´s Classics)
Twelfth Night is one of the most popular of Shakespeare's plays in the modern theatre, and this edition places particular emphasis on its theatrical qualities throughout. Peopled with lovers misled either by disguises or their own natures, it combines lyrical melancholy with broad comedy. The introduction analyses its many views of love and the juxtaposition of joy and melancholy, while the detailed commentary pays particular attention to its linguistic subtleties. Music is particularly important in Twelfth Night, and this is the only modern edition to offer material for all the music required in a performance. James Walker has re-edited the existing music from the original sources, and where noe exists has composed settings compatible with the surviving originals.

The Oxford Shakespeare: A Midsummer Night´s Dream (Oxford World´s Classics)
A Midsummer Night's Dream is perhaps the best loved of Shakepeare's plays. It brings together aristocrats, workers, and fairies in a wood outside Athens, and from there the enchantment begins. Simple and engaging on the surface, it is none the less a highly original and sophisticated work, remarkable for both its literary and its theatrical mastery. It is one of the very few of Shakespeare's plays which do not draw on narrative sources, which suggests that it reflects his deepest imaginative concerns to an unusual degree. In his introduction Peter Holland pays particular attention to dreams and dreamers, and to Shakespeare's construction of a world of night and shadows. Both here and in his commentary he explores the play's extensive performance history to illustrate the wide range of interpretations of which it is capable.

Shakespeare, Havel a ti druzí
Na rozdíl od fotografie, nikdo neví, kdy vzniklo divadlo a kdo je jeho vynálezcem. Na počátku byly zřejmě pravěké rituály a starodávné náboženské obřady. A protože v podstatě každý člověk vědomě či nevědomě a lépe či hůře hraje ve svém životě nějaké divadlo, stalo se divadlo součástí lidské kultury a dnes přitahuje stejně jako kdysi třeba v Antice. Lidé milují divadlo, protože přináší emoce, zkušenosti, inspiruje, dokáže pobavit a stejně tak otevírá prostor k zamyšlení.
S fotografií je to zdánlivě mnohem jednodušší. Princip camery obscury zpočátku pomáhal především malířům, ale než se od pouhého přenesení obrazu ten těkavý okamžik konečně podařilo i zvěčnit na papír, uplynula ještě dlouhá staletí. Dnes digitální fenomén, který se stejně jako divadlo, stal zcela přirozenou součástí naší kultury. A díky své téměř absolutní dostupností člověka neustále přitahuje a provokuje.
Divadlo i fotografie vyprávějí příběhy. Miroslav Fořt, autor unikátní knihy, se po většinu své profesní kariery věnoval zprostředkování příběhů. Především racionálním úhlem pohledu žurnalisty. V nové knize spojil své dvě velké lásky. Divadlo a fotografii. V obou případech totiž musí člověk vidět a cítit mnohem víc, než mu nabízí jen vlastní oči. Není proto náhodou, že své obrazy fotografiky spojil s názvy nejrůznějších divadelních her. Vždyť svět je přece divadlo, jak kdysi napsal slovutný velký vypravěč příběhů William Shakespeare. Kniha se sedmi desítkami obrazů a s nimi sedmi desítkami vybraných citátů z divadelních her je unikátní i proto, že vychází v omezeném nákladu a bez možnosti dotisku.
A Life of Shakespeare (EN)
A popular biography which looks at the life of the playwright in part through the plays themselves. The intricacies of Elizabethan drama set the background for the tale of the greatest dramatist.

Příběhy ze Shakespeara
To nejlepší ze Shakespeara nyní poprvé jako audiokniha William Shakesepare, jehož dramatickému dílu je věnována tato zvuková kniha, patří mezi velikány světové literatury. Znalost her Williama Shakespeara patří do kulturního povědomí moderního lidstva.
