The Norton Shakespeare: Based on the Oxford Edition: Histories by Greenblatt, Stephen. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780393931426.

Upon publication in 1997, The Norton Shakespeare set a new standard for teaching editions of Shakespeares complete works. Instructors and students worldwide welcomed the fresh scholarship, lively and accessible introductions, helpful marginal glosses and notes, readable single-column format, all designed in support of the goal of the Oxford text: to bring the modern reader closer than before possible to Shakespeares plays as they were first acted. Now, under Stephen Greenblatts direction, the editors have considered afresh each introduction and all of the apparatus to make the Second Edition an even better teaching tool.
