Excerpt from The Works of Shakespeare: The Tragedy of Hamlet This edition of Hamlet aims in the first place at giving a trustworthy text. Secondly, it attempts to exhibit the variations from that text which are found in the primary sources - the Quarto of I 604 and the Folio of I 62 3 - in so far as those variations are of importance towards the ascertainment of the text. Every variation is not recorded, but I have chosen to err on the side of excess rather than on that of defect. Readings from the Quarto of 1603 are occa sionally given, and also from the later Quartos and Folios, but to record such readings is not a part of the design of this edition. The letter Q means Quarto 1604; F means Folio 1623. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
