Pericles, Prince of TyreWilliam ShakespearePericles, Prince of Tyre is a Jacobean play written at least in part by William Shakespeare and included in modern editions of his collected works despite questions over its authorship, as it was not included in the First Folio. Whilst various arguments support that Shakespeare is the sole author of the play Pericles, the young Prince (ruler) of Tyre in Phoenicia (Lebanon), hears the riddle, and instantly understands its meaning: Antiochus is engaged in an incestuous relationship with his daughter. If he reveals this truth, he will be killed, but if he answers incorrectly, he will also be killed. Pericles hints that he knows the answer, and asks for more

Pericles, Prince of Tyre is a Jacobean play written at least in part by William Shakespeare and included in modern editions of his collected works despite questions over its authorship, as it was not included in the First Folio. Whilst various arguments support that Shakespeare is the sole author of the play (notably DelVecchio and Hammond's Cambridge edition of the play), modern editors generally agree that Shakespeare is responsible for almost exactly half the play—827 lines—the main portion after scene 9 that follows the story of Pericles and Marina.[a] Modern textual studies indicate that the first two acts of 835 lines detailing the many voyages of Pericles were written by a mediocre collaborator, which strong evidence suggests to have been the victualler, panderer, dramatist and pamphleteer George Wilkins.

Pericles, Prince of Tyre is a play written (at least in part) by William Shakespeare and included in modern editions of his collected works despite some questions over its authorship, as it was not included in the First Folio. Many modern editors believe that Shakespeare is responsible for the main portion of the play after scene 9 that follows the story of Pericles and Marina, and that the first two acts, detailing the many voyages of Pericles, were written by a relatively untalented reviser or collaborator, possibly George Wilkins.

Book Description
The New Cambridge Shakespeare appeals to students worldwide for its up-to-date scholarship and emphasis on performance. The series features line-by-line commentaries and textual notes on the plays and poems. Introductions are regularly refreshed with accounts of new critical, stage and screen interpretations. Over the last two decades there has been a resurgence of theatrical interest in Shakespeare's Pericles, which has been rescued from comparative neglect and is now frequently performed. The editors reject the current orthodoxies, that the text is seriously corrupt and that the play is of divided authorship. They show how the 1609 quarto has features in common with the first quarto of King Lear, now widely regarded as being based on Shakespeare's manuscript. Likewise they regard the arguments concerning divided authorship as unproven and misleading. Instead they show the play to be a unified aesthetic experience.

Book Description
Pericles, Prince of Tyre is perhaps one of the least known plays by the wonderful and incomparable English playwright, William Shakespeare. That fact does not make it any less intriguing or well written, it only makes it a rarer gem worthy of exploration for any reader interested in the works of Shakespeare. This play puts forth unique elements with its exploration of high seas adventure, discord, royalty, and romance. It's a dramatic, emotional, literary thrill-ride that promises to be entertaining for readers who are familiar with Shakespeare and enjoy his other work, and for any readers who enjoys the theater and reading plays. The main protagonist, Pericles, is tested throughout the course of the play, enduring a shipwreck, participating in a tournament of strength, and winning a bride to love and care for him. Pericles sees the world as full of adventure and his boat as his vessel of fate. But his newly acquired bride doesn't quite see eye to eye with him, and the two lovebirds quickly find themselves in dire straits as a harrowing shipwreck threatens their lives together and the life of their child. Nearby villains hide in the shadows and plot against them in the hopes of destroying them and seizing power. In the end, Pericles finds hope for his child, that she may live a safe and happy life while he struggled to do so in his youth. Pericles, Prince of Tyre is a different take from the typical plays of Shakespeare but certainly worthy of being included in this lofty cannon. For readers who enjoy drama, the theater, or history, this is an entertaining and exciting play that lends itself to drama and humor in equal doses. This play is also exciting for individuals familiar with Shakespeare's work as well as readers who have yet to pick up one of his many plays.
