Reviews

Prof. Neill's edition is complete with an introduction that is both learned and well-written and the footnotes are helpful especially for those approaching the play for the first time. Contemporary Review, Volume 288 The new Oxford Othello is quite simply a major achievement, a volume alive with exemplary editorial and critical thought. It sets a landmark in Shakespeare studies and fully deserves to become the preferred edition for many years to come. Duncan Salkeld, The Times Literary Supplement
