URL: http://www.durhammuseum.org/experience/exhibits/temporary/exhibit-details.aspx?ID=339

Description: The Durham Museum is delighted to exhibit an original 1623 First Folio from the Folger Shakespeare Library as part of the First Folio! The Book that Gave Us Shakespeare nationwide tour. This first-ever national tour of one of the world’s most influential books celebrates 400 years of Shakespeare and his legacy. The Durham is the only location in Nebraska for the First Folio! tour. In conjunction with the traveling exhibition from the Folger Shakespeare Library, The Durham Museum will also exhibit, A Thing Inspired: The Enduring Legacy of William Shakespeare, featuring some never-before-seen pieces from The Durham Museum’s Byron Reed Collection. A Thing Inspired draws objects and documents from the collection including a later edition of the Folio published in 1876 that speaks to the popularity of Shakespeare’s works, and also shows how later editors tried to change or “enhance” his plays.
