    Shakespeare is commonly held to be one of the greatest of all writers, and this is the most important edition of his work. It was published seven years after his death by two of his fellow actors. It prints a total of thirty-six plays, many of which would otherwise have been lost to future generations. It is not an especially rare book for the period, but it is - as its publishers intended - the principal monument to Shakespeare's towering literary achievement.
