The Duchess of Malfi is one of the major tragedies of the
early modern period and remains popular in the theatre as well as in
the classroom. The story of the Duchess's secret marriage and the cruel
revenge of her brothers has fascinated and appalled audiences for
centuries.


This new Arden edition offers readers a comprehensive, illustrated
introduction to the play's historical, critical and performance
history. The text is modernised and edited to the highest scholarly
standards, with textual notes and commentary notes on the same page for
ease of reference.


This is the lead title in the launch of The Arden Early Modern
Drama Series, a series which offers all the depth and quality of
thinking long associated with the Arden. The edition will be valued by
students, teachers and theatre professionals.

Industry Reviews
'I found it more exciting than I should probably admit to at seeing the Shakespeare-rich layer of annotation underpinning the text on the page of a play - The Duchess of Malfi - that simply hasn't been treated in that way before, especially in terms of introductory matter.' Shakespeare Bookshop Newsletter (December 2009)
