Description
Modern readers mostly know Sir Philip Sidney's Arcadia in its complete 'old' version, but it is the New Arcadia (published in 1590), a revised version of his pastoral romance The Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia, that was the most influential and most widely imitated literary text of the sixteenth century. Preserving the basic plot, New Arcadia adds further narrative strands and introduces ambitious revisions, demonstrating Sidney's brilliance as a prose writer.
This edition of the New Arcadia is the first in nearly four decades, preserving the text of Victor Skretkowicz' celebrated 1987 edition, whilst making the text accessible through modern spelling and supplementing it with a substantially expanded scholarly commentary, an updated glossary, and additional long notes on the book's history and Sidney's use of rhetorical devices, as well as his contributions to the English language.Spécifications
