Shakespeare: The Critical Heritage also known as William Shakespeare: The Critical Heritage [1] is a six-volume work edited by Brian Vickers. [2] [3] Volumes 1 through 3 were published in 1974 and 1975 by Routledge & Kegan Paul. [3] Vickers' "Critical Heritage" is described as a "...more or less complete collection of criticisms of Shakespeare's works." [2] Additionally, this set was expected to span three centuries by the time Volume 3 was available. [2] Vickers as the editor, wrote digestible introductions to each volume and easy to read headnotes throughout. [2] [3] [4] [5] Volume 6 covers the years of 1774 to 1801, and was published in 1981. [6] The complete set covers viewpoints on Shakespeare's work "from 1623 through to 1801." [7]
