 Earlier editions of "The Revenger's Tragedy" attributed the play to Cyril Tourneur, or refused to arbitrate between Middleton and Tourneur.Since the statistical studies by David Lake and MacDonald P. Jackson, however, Middleton's authorship has not been seriously contested, and no further scholar has defended the Tourneur attribution.The Oxford Middleton and its companion piece, "Thomas Middleton and Early Modern Textual Culture", offer extensive evidence both for Middleton's authorship of "The Revenger's Tragedy", for his collaboration with Shakespeare on "Timon of Athens", and for his adaptation and revision of Shakespeare's "Macbeth" and "Measure for Measure".
