On Women Editing Not-Shakespeare (or Not Editing)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 November 2021
Although this book by its very nature plays into a Shakespeare-centric approach to editorial history, this brief mention of women editing early modern texts by other authors, or doing other types of bibliographical work, hopefully offers a slight counterbalance to that tendency. Some of this material warrants significantly more time and space than is available here. Many women editors and textual scholars are excluded from this book purely due to chronological technicalities. For example, Madeleine Doran’s only edition of a Shakespeare play was A Midsummer Night’s Dream, published in 1959 for the Pelican series, under the general editorship of Alfred Harbage.1 This puts her beyond the time scope covered by this book; however, her influential bibliographical work during the 1920s and ’30s deserves acknowledgement.
