To celebrate the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's #FirstFolio, we have added new copies to our open-access resource #FirstFoliosCompared, including a well-loved copy from @tcddublin, which is heavily annotated and contains plenty of distinguishing marks, including a paw print!
How do race, gender & queerness intersect with textual editing? What editorial decisions add or change meaning to words & phrases?
Join us to explore the complex, exciting challenges of editing Shakespeare today.
