5.0 out of 5 stars Good book, Good quality

Ordered for my English literature course. The book itself is great- no real point in reviewing Shakespeare, but it is one of his more interesting stories, so I recommend it even for those outside the classroom. This edition is great for classroom use, with character and act guides built into the book, along with informative illustrations and definitions of the more obscure old-English phrases. Overall, one of the best editions of this book yet.

I used this for my a level english literature coursework and it is extremely handy! i have used the Cambridge one parallel to it but frankly speaking, the oxford edition is better- it contains the full text (unlike the cambridge one) and useful essays and summaries are included

5.0 out of 5 stars Version recommended by teacher
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 October 2014

This version has translations of unfamiliar words in a column on the side as well as summaries of the scene at the beginning in order to help you understand the context and thus the speech more easily. Also it is like a study guide in itself, as it has commentaries on all the scenes as well as substantial quotes from critics as well as background info.

However for deeper understanding and critical analysis I recommend using York Notes. I'm currentlly using both for my A2 Literature exam, and York Notes helped me to obtain A* in GCSE and A in AS level. I'd also recommend using Sparknotes, they have detailed critical notes also-which are free-as well as a "no fear Shakespeare" section were a column of the play is adjacent to a column which is the play's translation in simple English. These are all incredibly useful.
