β€œThis Norton Critical Edition of Twelfth Night weaves the crucial analytic lenses of gender, epistolary culture, and performance throughout the contributions of the artists and writers that contribute to the edition. In so doing, Natasha Korda gifts the reader with new understandings of early modern theatre and raises the bar on editorship.” β€” Carla Della Gatta, University of Maryland
