The Arden Shakespeare, founded in the 1890s, has, with a continuing process of revision, established itself as the standard scholarly edition of Shakespeare’s works. Each play appears in a separate volume with critical notes, apparatus, appendices giving extracts from the relevant sources and a full introduction and this volume concerning Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra is no exception. For the general reader and for students who want something more substantial than school texts or a one-volume Shakespeare, the Arden edition, edited to the highest standards of modern scholarship, has continued to prove invaluable. Apart from the full text of Antony and Cleopatra, there is a reviser’s preface, an introduction and an appendices section  with extra information to help understand this important play.
