"The Merry Wives of Windsor is a much neglected comedy by Shakespeare. At times considered one of his weaker plays, it is often dismissed or marginalised. However, critical developments in feminist, ecocritical and new historicist criticism have led to a revival of interest, and this collection of 18 essays by top Shakespeare scholars sheds new light on the play.
