1709 Nicholas Rowe 6 The Works of Mr. William Shakespear The first "named" edition of Shakespeare.
1723 Alexander Pope 6 The Works of Mr. William Shakespear Pope's first edition. A reprint of some sort happened in 1725, along with a "supplementary volume of poetry" (see IA description from BPL for this edition).
1728 Alexander Pope 10 The Works of Shakespear Second edition, incorporating, among other things, textual readings from Lewis Theobald. Published in 8 volumes; then followed by a 9th supplementary volume; then reissued in 10 volumes. According to its entry in the Folger Shakespeare Library's "Hamnet" database, no known copy exists that advertises "in nine volumes" on its title page.
1733 Lewis Theobald 7 The Works of Shakespeare
1734-5 Robert Walker Small-format editions of the individual plays
1734-6 Jacob Tonson
1740 Lewis Theobald 8 The Works of Shakespeare The second edition of Theobald's 1733 edition.
1743-4 Thomas Hanmer Was this an expensive quarto edition for OUP, and the later 1747 edition a cheaper, more accessible, edition for "regular" people? Peter Martin's Malone might have the details. Or perhaps Schoenbaum's Shakespeare's Lives.
1745 Thomas Hanmer 6 The Works of Shakespear Based on the Oxford quarto editions, but with added markup identifying notes and emendations from other editors. A first edition of the 1747 work? Or was 1747 a mere reprint of this?
1747 Thomas Hanmer 9 The Works of Shakespear A second edition? Or was it published posthumously? Hanmer died in 1746, so something is certainly up with this date. Labelled as published in 1747 on the title page, but based on the Oxford quarto editions of 1744.
1747 William Warburton 8 The Works of Shakespear
1748 Thomas Hanmer 9 The Works of Shakespear A new edition? A second printing of the 1747 edition?
