John Dover Wilson's New Shakespeare, published between 1921 and 1966, became the classic Cambridge edition of Shakespeare's plays and poems until the 1980s. The series, long since out-of-print, is now reissued. Each work is available both individually and as a set, and each contains a lengthy and lively introduction, main text, and substantial notes and glossary printed at the back. The edition, which began with The Tempest and ended with The Sonnets, put into practice the techniques and theories that had evolved under the 'New Bibliography'. Remarkably by today's standards, although it took the best part of half a century to produce, the New Shakespeare involved only a small band of editors besides Dover Wilson himself. As the volumes took shape, many of Dover Wilson's textual methods acquired general acceptance and became an established part of later editorial practice, for example in the Arden and New Cambridge Shakespeares.

约翰-多佛-威尔逊的《新莎士比亚》在1921年至1966年间出版，成为剑桥大学莎士比亚戏剧和诗歌的经典版本，直到1980年代。这套丛书早已绝版，现在又重新发行了。每部作品都有单独的和成套的版本，每部作品都有冗长而生动的介绍、正文，以及印在后面的大量注释和词汇表。该版本从《暴风雨》开始，以《十四行诗》结束，将 "新书目 "下发展的技术和理论付诸实践。以今天的标准来看，虽然《新莎士比亚》花了半个世纪的时间才完成，但除了多佛-威尔逊本人之外，只有一小群编辑参与其中，令人瞩目。随着书卷的形成，多佛-威尔逊的许多文本方法被普遍接受，并成为后来编辑工作的既定组成部分，例如在《阿登》和《新剑桥莎士比亚》中。
