This is a 'currently-reading' review, since I noticed no one had reviewed this book yet

I'm sure the Blackwell 4-Volume companion to the works of William Shakespeare will take some time to get through, but it sure looks to be an interesting addition to the canon. Comprising an essay on each of Shakespeare's plays, and the same number of essays on a wide range of topics to do with the works, this is certainly quite an achievement. I've only read one essay thus far, and it sadly couldn't find the balance between overly twee academic discourse and turgid philosophical musings, but I don't let this one person's writing colour the other eighty or so essays still to be found.

Obviously no one work can cover the vast scope of Shakespeare, and this work isn't claiming to. But in attempting to consolidate current theories on the works, I suspect it will hold my interest. Looking forward to it!
