Subsequent generations have struggled with its bold confrontation of violence, but in the 20th and 21st centuries, the play has resonated with audiences again, perhaps because of its simultaneously shocking and playful approach to violent revenge and bodily mutilation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJonathan Bate's original Arden edition was first published in 1995 and has had a significant influence on how the play has been performed and studied over the past two decades. This revised edition includes a new 10,000-word introductory essay in which Bate reassesses his views on the play's co-authorship with George Peele in light of contemporary textual scholarship. It also updates his lively account of the play's performance history, both on the international stage and screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith detailed on-page commentary notes, this will continue to be the edition of choice for students, scholars, and theatre-makers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House Distribution","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47433149350124,"sku":"9781350030916","price":21.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781350030916.jpg?v=1774765495","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/titus-andronicus-by-william-shakespeare-9781350030916","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
