Critics Review
Hartley gives the reader a new version of the play with additions that are subtle and radical at the same time … What makes this edition of Julius Caesar feel so unique is that the reader seems to be in the presence of a working writer, director and scholar in conversation with Shakespeare, separated by 425 years. * Current Shakespeare *
These new editions maintain the same level of scholarship as the Third Series and the Arden General Editors have made a real effort to make them more accessible for everyone. The fact that they have successfully balanced scholarship and accessibility is a real achievement. * Current Shakespeare *
