Halvor (Raknes) | 4772 comments ISBN: 076458569X

192 pages per my copy and WorldCat.

Another issue is that this book contains the complete Shakespeare text, so that means the playwright himself should be added as author.


Halvor (Raknes) | 4772 comments Another thing is the title. It differs from what it looks like at either WorldCat and Amazon. I suggest the most correct title would be "CliffsComplete Shakespeare's Julius Caesar".

Also, according to Amazon, this is the 2nd edition.


Halvor (Raknes) | 4772 comments The imprint name surely shouldn't be part of the title then? And in parenthesis making it seem a series name?


Halvor (Raknes) | 4772 comments We'll wait for someone like Rivka to provide guidance then!

If they contain the complete text, then they are annotated editions, and Shakespeare would be first author -- and they should be combined with all other editions of the work.

Before that, though: "(Cliffscomplete)" definitely does not belong in the title field. It could be added in the edition field, or just removed.
