Inhaltsangabe

For three days in June 2004 Shakespeare's Globe presented their production of Romeo and Juliet in original, Shakespearian pronunciation, the first such attempt in over 50 years. In an unusual blend of autobiography, narrative, and academic content, this 2005 book by David Crystal recounts the research, preparation and impact of these historic performances.

'Crystal presents a clear and lively story that will engage and carry along even the most phonetically uninformed reader ... a thoughtful and inspiring model.' Around the Globe

'... an engaging, unbuttoned style ... at its core is a masterclass in the rudiments of OP, a potentially dull topic that Crystal makes absorbing.' The Times Higher Education Supplement
