Prefatory Note

OUR of the studies contained in this volume

FOUR

are now offered to the public in a revised form. The other two, those on "Othello" and "The Merry Wives of Windsor," are entirely new. The work, like its predecessor, "Shakespeare Studied in Eight Plays," is intended for the general reader rather than the Shakespearian scholar.
