Part of the "Barnes & Noble Shakespeare" series, "The Tempest" is an extraordinary blend of visual spectacle, story, poetry and is Shakespeare's dramatic meditation on the art of power. This unique series features newly edited texts prepared by leading scholars from Great Britain and America, in collaboration with one of the world's foremost Shakespeare authorities, David Scott Kastan of Columbia University. Together they have produced texts as faithful as possible to those that Shakespeare wrote.
