Helpful Score: 2
The Folger Libray edition is very useful for students who are unfamiliar with Elizabethan language, customs, and other oddities. Students find the edition easy to use and helpful.
One of Shakespeare's greatest tragedies - a great reading of psychological trauma and revenge.
Includes illustrations and explanations for better understanding.
This screenplay, introduction, and film diary for the Kenneth Branagh production was just fascinating. It's the entire text of Hamlet as a film script, complete with film shots and stage directions. Very interesting.
Loved this version of Hamlet. The modern translation along with original text was very helpful!
This is my favorite book and Shakespeare Play. I named my daughter Ophelia. A great tragedy if you like to read those. CLASSIC!
This is part of the Pendulum Illustrated Series. It is perfect for high school students. The book is a comic version of the story. Yet, famous quotes are often left intact as written by Shakespeare himself. Includes vocabulary list and discussion questions at the end of the book.
This is insane! Shakespeare didn't cowrite HAMLET, and if he had, it would seem that more of the world of Shakespeare scholasticism would care about it than just the small-time publishers of this bizarre reprint. I'm curious, but very skeptical.
This book is written in comic book format. Excellent for reluctant readers.
This is from the Folger Libary General Reader's Shakespreare HAMLET published 1964 Excellent intoduction to William Shakespeare
