One Book to Rule Them All: 'The King James Version' of Shakespeare's Plays

Gary Taylor

Summary: Renaissance clothes and plays emphasized variety and piecemeal assemblages. However, the Shakespeare First Folio constructed a uniform image for marketing purposes, which does not accurately represent the reality of early modern play production. This essay examines the relationship between early performances and posthumous print by analyzing the Folio text of The Life of Henry the Fift, shedding light on the complexity of this relationship.

The Folgers' First Folios

Zoltan Markus

Summary: The Folger Shakespeare Library possesses 82 copies of First Folios, accounting for over a third of the surviving total of 235 copies worldwide. The married couple Henry and Emily Folger obtained these copies from 1893 to 1928. Most posthumous narratives regarding the Folgers' collection of First Folios primarily focus on Henry Clay Folger's biography and financial support, while neglecting Emily Jordan Folger's contribution. This article argues that recognizing Emily Jordan Folger's role is not only an ethical obligation but also helps us understand the intellectual framework behind the Folgers' relentless pursuit of acquiring multiple copies of the First Folio, which is revered as the authentic text of Shakespeare in late 19th century USA.
