Originally written between 1599 and 1601. Three different versions of the early play have survived: First Quarto (published ca. 1603 by Ling and Trundell), Second Quarto (published ca. 1604 by Ling, and the First Folio (published ca. 1623 by Blount and Jaggard). Each has lines and sometimes scenes that are missing from the other versions.

General Note
Treated as a "blanket" record for the classic Shakespeare work in English. Other versions with criticism, illustrations, adaptations, etc. cataloged separately.
