HE present edition not only provides the play with adequate notes, which explain the linguistic difficulties and the historical and legendary allusions in the text, but also aims to increase the student’s appreciation of the master’s great work by enlisting his interest in the leading literary questions connected with it. The Introduction has thus included a critical analysis of the play, a concise account of the development of the Tell Legend and its relation to the real history of the Swiss struggle for liberty. A short Bibliography, including the best reference books, is added. This edition has a map.
