GLASGOW; PRINTED AT THE UNIVERSITY PRESS BY ROBERT MACLEHOSE AND CO.

A MIDSUMMER-NIGHT'S DREAM Edited by L. W. LYDE, M.A., Bolton Grammar School. Small Crown 8vo, 145 pp. Bound in Cloth. Price 18. net.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

"This is essentially a school edition, with a scholarly introduction, and with good useful notes at the end, which deal principally with what is typically Elizabethan in Shakespeare's language. There is also an examination paper as a guide to teachers to the proper study of the play. The volume is well printed, and is altogether well got up."-Secondary Education.

"The introduction to this play is devoted not so much to Shakespearian criticism in general as to explaining the story, its source and scene, the title, date of production, the characters, composition, and interpretation. The notes are in the main confined to the explanation of peculiarly Elizabethan language. The book is printed in beautiful large type, and is moderate in price."-Glasgow Herald.

"The notes are by no means of the too common dry-as-dust character, but clear, pertinent, and sufficient. The book is excellently printed and bound."-Northern Whig.

"Mr. Lyde's introduction to 'A Midsummer-Night's Dream' is thoroughly to the point, and written in a bright, conventional, direct manner, which will command attention. We have seldom, indeed, seen the development of a difficult plot more clearly indicated."Guardian.

"Very admirably arranged. The introduction is a model of condensation and lucidity, while the notes for sheer relevancy and point. are beyond all praise. The binding and text are worthy of the high standard of the rest of the book."-Glasgow Daily Mail.

"A very neat and substantial little volume."-Liverpool Mercury. "This is an exceedingly good Shakespeare for school use-one really written for the class, and not, as so often seems the case, for the teacher."- Educational Review.

"Quite the best school edition we know. The story is told concisely and clearly. There is a good account of the principal characters, and an 'interpretation' of the aim and scope of the play. The notes are quite the right sort, just simple explanations of unusual words or phrases.”—Preparatory Schools Review.

"Invaluable for school use."-Belfast News Letter.

Capital edition of the play for schools."-Scotsman.

"Welcome as an instance of some original plan-to apply common sense to the culture of imagination."-Educational News.

KING LEAR

Edited by P. SHEAVYN, M.A., Lecturer at Somerville Hall, Oxford.

Small Crown 8vo, 164 pp. Price ls. net.

Bound in Cloth.

"A particularly good edition for school use."-Bookman.

'The text is accompanied by critical and explanatory notes, pithily expressed and not too prodigal in number. The introduction deals admirably with the dramatic and literary aspects of King Lear."" Speaker.

'The introduction is a model of what the introduction to one of Shakespeare's plays should be. Every word is relevant, every

sentence suggestive."-Glasgow Daily Mail.

THE MERCHANT OF VENICE

Edited by J. STRONG, B.A., Montrose Academy.

Small Crown 8vo, 128 pp. Price ls. net. Bound in Cloth. "The sane common-sense of the editor is highly to be praised; and, as an expositor of his theme, in harmony with the purpose of the series, he has been most successful."-Educational News.

"We would specially commend the notes as a model of terseness. They are entirely free from the defects of certain well-known school editions of Shakespeare, which are so choked with a mass of erudition. as to render them thoroughly unsuitable for junior forms."-Saturday Review

JULIUS

Edited by L. W. LYDE,

CAESAR

M.A., Bolton Grammar School. Small Crown 8vo, 144 pp. Price 1s. net. Bound in Cloth.

Shakespeare's great play is here well annotated by Mr. Lyde. An excellent introduction gives the reader a thorough account of the story, its source, the scenes, the characters, the construction, the interpretation, and the dramatis personæ. In addition to the text, an examination paper and an index are supplied. The notes are very superior, and of a kind really wanted in a school edition of Shakespeare's plays."-The Educational News.

"A good book for schools."--The Bookman.

'Julius Caesar' in Black's School Shakespeare is, from the school standpoint, quite admirable. The analysis of the plot is a model of clearness and conciseness. The notes are quite short and to the point, and the whole is well printed. This is one of the best school books we have seen. "-Literature.
