The NHB Drama Classics series presents the world's greatest plays in affordable, highly readable editions for students, actors and theatregoers.

The hallmarks of the series are accessible introductions (focussing on the play's theatrical and historical background, together with an author biography, key dates and suggestions for further reading) and the complete text, uncluttered with footnotes.

The translations, by leading experts in the field, are accurate and above all actable.

The editions of English-language plays include a glossary of unusual words and phrases to aid understanding.

Doctor Faustus tells the classic story of a learned Doctor who sells his soul to the devil.

This edition contains two self-contained versions of the play, known as the A-text and the B-text, allowing readers to compare the available versions, and performers to choose the version that suits them best.

It also contains a full introduction, notes on further reading, a chronology and a glossary of difficult words.

Edited by D.Bevington & E.Rasmussen, and introduced by Simon Trussler.
