Originally published between 1995 and 2007, this set is now available in paperback for the first time.

This three-volume critical edition of John Webster's works preserves the original spelling of his plays, poetry and prose, and incorporates the most recent editorial scholarship, including invaluable information on Webster's share in the collaborative plays.

It also employes new critical methods and textual theory.

Volumes one and two are devoted to the plays. Unusually the edition integrates theatrical aspects of the plays with their bibliographical and literary features.

The edition presents all of Webster's plays and provides a brief biography, an account of the Webster canon , illustrations and critical and theatrical histories of each play.

Volume three includes writings by Webster in various genres, from the elegy to comic drama to a Lord Mayor's show.
