Reviews

[T]he quality of the editorial work is uniformly excellent. The edition also includes a range of appendices containing a wealth of supplementary material including performance listings, prologues and epilogues, and, notably, all extant vocal music for Rowe's dramas. The scores, beautifully edited by Joe Lockwood, are a significant contribution to our understanding of Rowe's plays as the importance of music in Restoration and early eighteenth-century drama is often overlooked. ...the very real contribution of this edition... illuminates Rowe's literary career and, for the first time, establishes a scholarly text of his works. - Jean L. Marsden, Review of English Studies
