To read Shakespeare as his first audiences did, you must speak his language. The language of Shakespeare lives. Alexander Schmidt's Shakespeare-Lexicon: A Complete Dictionary Of All The English Words, Phrases And Constructions In The Works Of The Poet (Volume II) M-Z is the key that unlocks it, guiding readers through the dense, dazzling world of Elizabethan era English. This indispensable shakespeare words dictionary volume 2 systematically gathers Shakespeare's vocabulary from M to Z in the plays and poems, explaining usages, senses and cross-references with precision. First published in the nineteenth century, Schmidt's lexicon has long been recognised as a cornerstone of Shakespearean scholarship. At once an elizabethan english lexicon and a richly detailed literary reference dictionary, it explores the nuanced meanings of shakespeare words, clarifies obscure allusions, and illuminates shakespeare language and phrases in their original early modern English vocabulary. Serving as an indispensable reference for shakespeare scholars, students, actors and general readers, it supports close reading, performance preparation and research, functioning as a shakespeare study reference, a complete shakespeare reference book and a trusted shakespeare concordance companion for every serious engagement with renaissance english literature. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
