The Ignatius Critical Editions<\/em>\u00a0represent a tradition-oriented alternative to popular textbook series such as the\u00a0Norton Critical Editions<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0Oxford World Classics<\/em>, and are designed to concentrate on traditional readings of the Classics of world literature. While many modern critical editions have succumbed to the fads of modernism and post-modernism, this series will concentrate on tradition-oriented criticism of these great works.<\/p>\n

Edited by acclaimed literary biographer, Joseph Pearce, the\u00a0Ignatius Critical Editions<\/em>\u00a0will ensure that traditional moral readings of the works are given prominence, instead of the feminist, or deconstructionist readings that often proliferate in other series of ‘critical editions’. As such, they represent a genuine extension of consumer-choice, enabling educators, students and lovers of good literature to buy editions of classic literary works without having to ‘buy into’ the ideologies of secular fundamentalism.<\/p>\n

The series is ideal for anyone wishing to understand great works of western civilization, enabling the modern reader to enjoy these classics in the company of some of the finest literature professors alive today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

One of the most popular of Shakespeare’s plays,\u00a0King Lear<\/em>\u00a0is also one of the most thought-provoking. The play turns on the practical ramifications of the words of Christ that we should render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s and unto God that which is God’s. When confronted with the demand that she should render unto Caesar that which is God’s, Cordelia chooses to “love and be silent”. As the play unfolds each of the principal characters learns wisdom through suffering.<\/p>\n
