Description: The Bard's original poetic phrases are printed side-by-side and line-by-line with the modern translation on each facing page. While Shakespeare's immortal plays have endured, the English language has changed-which is why today's students often find Shakespeare's idiom difficult to comprehend.

Simply Shakespeare is the solution to their problem.
