      As well as the complete and unabridged text, each play in this series has an extensive range of student's notes. These include detailed and clear explanations of difficult words and passages, a synopsis of the plot, summaries of individual scenes, and notes on the main characters. Also included is a wide range of questions and activities for work in class, together with the historical background to Shakespeare's England, a brief biography of Shakespeare, and a complete list of his plays. For this new edition, the text of the play, the notes, and the introductory matter have all been revised so as to make them clearer and more accessible. In addition, the entire text of the book has been redesigned and reset to make it easier to read. The illustrations have been completely redrawn, photographs of recent stage production have been included and there is a new, attractive cover design.

      Ludwig van Beethoven lebte ab 1792 bis zu seinem Tode in Wien. Den Sommer 1802 verbrachte er in Heiligenstadt, damals ein beliebter Kurort. Hier entstanden die Sturm-Sonate und erste Skizzen zur späteren 3. Symphonie, der Eroica. Außerdem schrieb Beethoven an diesem Ort einen Brief, der als Heiligenstädter Testament in die Geschichte eingegangen ist: eine Art „geistiges Bekenntnis“ angesichts seiner fortschreitenden Ertaubung. Der außergewöhnliche Künstler Beethoven und seine Musik stehen im Mittelpunkt dieser Publikation. Doch es werden auch die Hörgewohnheiten des Publikums vor etwa 200 Jahren thematisiert, die gesellschaftlichen Grenzen dieser Zeit sowie das Ausloten von neuen Möglichkeiten.
