Though written nearly 400 years ago, Shakespeare's Macbeth continues to capture the interest of modern audiences. The play has been staged countless times and has also been produced for film and television. As one of Shakespeare's most popular and most frequently studied works, it has generated an enormous amount of critical material and scholarly debate. This reference book is a comprehensive guide to Macbeth. The volume includes a discussion of the play's textual history, an overview of the various editions presently available, an examination of contexts and sources, an analysis of the play's dramatic structure, an exploration of major themes, a summary of critical approaches, and a review of stage, film, and television productions.
