THE NEW CAMBRIDGE SHAKESPEARE
GENERAL EDITOR
Brian Gibbons
ASSOCIATE GENERAL EDITOR
A. R. Braunmuller, University of California, Los Angeles
From the publication of the first volumes in 1984 the General Editor of the New Cambridge Shakespeare was Philip Brockbank and the Associate General Editors were Brian Gibbons and Robin Hood. From 1990 to 1994 the General Editor was Brian Gibbons and the Associate General Editors were A. R. Braunmuller and Robin Hood.
JULIUS CAESAR
Professor Spevacks critical discussion shows how private desires and public affairs are inextricable in Julius Caesar and how Shakespeare frames the world of this play person, action, place, time within the operations of larger forces, mysterious, ironical and undeniable. The result is the full impact of tragedy. The commentary is remarkable for its attention to questions of staging and to precise lexical glossing. For this updated edition, Marga Munkelt has added a new section and new pictures to the Introduction, surveying stage and critical interpretations since the 1980s of Shakespeares most famous Roman play. The reading list has also been brought up to date.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I am privileged to acknowledge the help I have received from students and colleagues, friends and strangers, who contributed their expertise and goodwill to this enterprise. I take pleasure in the fact that my debt is great and to many on both sides of the Atlantic.
In seminars in Mnster and New Mexico (where I spent the academic year 19856) I was able to profit from the remarks of the prospective users of a work of this kind: the reactions of students to the necessity and nature of the Commentary. In Mnster, my thanks to Sabine Ulrike Bckmann-de Villegas, Peter Hellfeuer, Michael Hiltscher, Thomas Pago, Ulrich Paul, Elisabeth Pirke, Clemens Sorgenfrey, Elke Stracke, Krishnan Venkatesh, Martin Wolny, and Angela Zatsch. In Albuquerque, to Mohamed Ali, Mary Lou Fisk, David Kreuter, Catherine Mecklenburg, Linda Oldham, and Jon Tuttle.
For help in the preparation of the manuscript in Albuquerque, I am indebted to Marta Field and K. T. Martin, for administrative encouragement to Hamlin C. Hill, and for computer support to Harry C. Broussard; in Mnster, to Lydia Remke for typing and Carsten Ehmke and Bernhard Friederici for computing. Marga Munkelt, as always, provided ready solutions to many and varied scholarly problems. Special credit is due to Elisabeth Pirke, who worked on all aspects in Mnster and Albuquerque, and to Sabine Ulrike Bckmann-de Villegas, who saw to all the final details as well as writing the section of the Introduction dealing with the stage history.
