Romeo and Juliet (Folger Shakespeare Library)

The book was great! I liked how it had the explanation of words and phrases in it. Lots of scene breakdowns and extras throughout

Perfect for my son homework and great size

Arrived as advertised

ehhh in old english but still super great would reccomend

Amazing book

Super buenoo recomendado 100%

This is a great romantic tragedy, which I had to read for my Intro. to Drama class. This is one of those works of Shakespeare that has been done in a multitude of forms and variations, so it is quite likely that everyone has a rough idea of the story. Still, you really cannot replace the original. There is a lot of unbelievable story to it, which can overdo it to the point of being distracting, but overall the language and story are so supremely memorable that it automatically qualifies as a must-read. As to the edition itself, I found it to be greatly helpful in understanding the action in the play. It has a layout which places each page of the play opposite a page of notes, definitions, explanations, and other things needed to understand that page more thoroughly. While I didn't always need it, I was certainly glad to have it whenever I ran into a turn of language that was unfamiliar, and I definitely appreciated the scene-by-scene summaries. Really, if you want to or need to read Shakespeare, an edition such as this is really the way to go, especially until you get more accustomed to it.

Very good quality book.

C'est pour l ecole. Si on achete la mauvaise version on doit racheter un autre livre. La maison d'edition devrait etre : Simon & Schuster 9780671722852 On se retrouve avec edition by Barbara A Mowat and P. W avec un numero 771111 ?!!!

有名なお話なのに言葉が古かったり、詩的過ぎて、原書で読むのは無理だと思っていましたが、この本は、中味の半分を、意味が変わってしまった言葉やわかりにくい表現の解説に割いていて、親切な本だと思った。まだまだ、勉強不足の私にも、少し当時の雰囲気を体験させてもらったような気がして、良かった。

Your delivery service was outstanding! Characters in this novel are well cared at ; Rome’s love expression towards Juliet still leaves a remarkable footprint in the forthcoming generation. It’s captivating!

cool
