Richard II
ISBN: 9780198186427 / Angielski / Twarda / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Written in 1595, Richard II occupies a significant place in the Shakespeare canon.

In his introduction, John Jowett explains how these characteristics arise because the play was written as a collaboration between Shakespeare and Thomas Middleton. This edition pays...
