Suakspeare has been a great Wend to the paper-makera and printerß, for, numerons as have been the copies of his works which the press has produced, his commentators and editors have been unusually prolific also. Ills plays and pooms were printed during his life-time, or, more correctly, his poems so ap peared, and moßt of his plays. These ap peared without having passed under his own supervision—all more or less Incorrect—some printed from copies surreptitiously obtained from the inferior actors, some published from copies inaccurately takon down during repre sentation. At last, eight years after his death, Heminoe & Gohdelii, two of Siiakspeake’s Wends and fellow-actors, published a iolio edition of his plays, no doubt from tlio manu script copies which bolonged to the thoatro. A second folio edition, correcting many er rors in the first, but containing careless inac curacies of its own, appeared in 1082, and the text of SiiAKaf'EA&E, as now received, has been chiefly made up by collating both these editions. A third folio edition appeared in 1004, (but is remarkably scarce, nearly every copy having been destroyed in the firo of London in IGGG,) and a fourth in 1652. These two last impressions accumulated new orrors and inaccuracies, careftilly preserving the old. These were all tho ancient editions of Shaks- In 1700, Nicholas Kowe, himself a poet and dramatic writer of some note, whose lugubrious tragedy of « Jano Shore” is sometimes acted even yet, produced Shakspeare’s works, in seven octavo volumes, prefixing a biography, which, brief ns it is, has ever since been the germ of every subsequent biography of him who, by Monsieur Ponsabd, Member of the French Academy, is patronizingly spoken of as “ tho immortal Williams.” It is probable that Rowe’s edition drew Addison’s attention to SitAEspEAHE, who has repeatedly mentioned him, with praise, in The Spectator, winding up ono allusion with tho following complimentary but fanciful comparison i “ Shakspeaee was indoed born with all tho seeds of poetry, and may be compared to the Stone in Pvannus’s ring, which, as Punt tolls us, had the figure of Apollo and the nine Muses in the veins of it, produced by tho spontaneous hand of nature, without any holp from art.” ■ A duodecimo edition of Rowe’s Shakspoaro, in fourteen volumes, wap published in 1714. This was succeeded by an edition, in six quarto volumes, by Alexander Pope, in 1725, repro duced in ton volumes duodecimo in 1728, the very worst attempt ever made, perhaps, upon the text of tho great dramatist. Next camo Lewis Theobald, the hero of Pope’s “ Dunciad,” whose system, as editor, seemed chiefly to consist in disputing evory point laid down by Pope, whom ho heartily . hated—and, indeed, with strong cause. Tho next Shakspearian editor was Sir Tuo mab Hanmer, baronet, who had beon Speaker af tho House of Commons in 1712, and dovo :od the next thirty years of his life to tho pre parhtion of what he hoped would be a wholly correct text. His edition, in six quarto, with engravings by the celebrated Gravelot, was published in 1744, and he presented it to the University of Oxford. There aro a few rea sonable suggestions ns to emendations of tho text, but tho labors of Sir Thohas llanmer are very lightly esteemed now. Dr. 'William Warmirton, Bishop of Glou cester, who so ably and ingeniously vindicated tho religious purposo of Pope’s “ Essay on Man,” next undertook to act as literary dry nurse to Shakspeaee, and produced his edi tion, in 8 octavo volumes, in 1747. Thoro is considerable merit in his annotations and sug gestions, but he was dogmatic to a degree. !njt7n&_onnqucd Dr. Samuel Johnson's 4XUtt
