A Warning for Fair Women is a 1599 true-crime drama from the repertory of Shakespeares acting company. While important to literary scholars and theater historians, it is also readable, relevant, and stage-worthy today. Dramatizing the murder of London merchant George Saunders by his wifes lover, and the trials and executions of the murderer and accomplices, it also sheds light on neighborhood and domestic life and crime and punishment. This edition of A Warning for Fair Women is fully updated, featuring a lively and extensive introduction and covering topics from authorship and staging to the 2018 world revival of the play in the United States. It includes a section with discussion and research questions along with resources on topics raised by the play, from beauty and womens friendship to the occult. Ann C. Christensen presents a freshly edited text for todays readers, with in-depth explanatory notes, scene summaries, a gallery of period images, and full scholarly apparatus.
