The Making of the National Poet is the first extended study of the eighteenth century's revisions and revaluations of Shakespeare, and the first to consider the period's much reviled stage adaptations in the context of the profound cultural changes in which they participate. In so doing it provides an invaluable and fascinating account of Shakespeare's promotion from archaic, rustic playwright to England's timeless Bard.

Theatre Research International perceptive study ... this is an accessible, lucidly persuasive and enjoyable work ... It makes an important contribution to the study of the Shakespeare phenomenon, but has no sense of bitterness or parti pris, and it offers a fresh and necessary realignment of thinking about the stage adaptations of the plays between the 1660s and the 1760s.

London Review of Books rich in insight ... clever, lucid and scrupulously researched

Times Literary Supplement Dobson ... is one of the band of recent critics who have viewed the history of Shakespeare's reputation as a political matter. He proves himself to be certainly the wittiest and possibly the most learned and judicious of these critics. He has a marvellous way of unearthing some forgotten adaptation . . . he has a strong grasp of the intricacies of eighteenth-century politics.
