A Bedford/St. Martin's critical edition of Shakespeare's The Tempest, reprinting the Bevington text alongside twenty-one essays representing the major fights about the play: colonialism, gender, authority, and whether Prospero is magician or exploiter. Gerald Graff and James Phelan organize the volume around the premise that the arguments are as instructive as the play. The paperback is dense, with the no-nonsense cover of a book assigned in bulk. Ideal reader: the student who has been told there is no single right reading and wants proof, or the teacher who believes Shakespeare improves when his plays are argued over rather than reverenced.
