Much Ado About Nothing - Oxford School Shakespeare Series

A boisterous comedy, Much Ado About Nothing is a story of disguise, as Beatrice and Benedick insist they are immune to the charms of the opposite sex. During plot twists and turns, and a few tricks by their friends, Beatrice and Benedick make a surprising discovery.

This edition of Much Ado About Nothing is specially designed for students, with accessible on-page notes and explanatory illustrations. The notes include definitions of difficult words and passages, valuable background information, and suggested assignments to guide students to master Shakespeare's work.

Students of all ages relate to the universal themes of warfare, love, perception versus reality, shame, and freedom.
