Description:

The WWW site contains most of Shakespeare's works in complete, searchable format. You can search for any keyword in any or all of the works and be taken directly to the portion of the work containing that word. A glossary of terms is quite helpful for deciphering the language of Shakespeare's times.

Pointers to additional Shakespeare resources on the Internet take you to other sites, including "The Shakespeare Web," a growing site where people can ask and answer questions about the Bard.

How You Can Use This Source:

• Search the works of Shakespeare to find particular information.
• View plays chronologically or by subject and compare works within the groups.
• Explore the Shakespeare glossary to see how words and their meanings have changed since Shakespeare's day.
• Search through Shakespeare's works for quotes and sayings that have become a part of our present-day expressions.
