Recenzii

"Sometimes you find a book and think, 'Why didn't someone do this years ago?' The answer is probably that no-one else could have approached the job or seen it through to completion so magnificently. This is much more than a valuable resource to make Shakespeare's vocabulary accessible to students; it is so crammed with delicious snippets that it is a delight to browse."
"Savvy navigation tools, skilful indexing and clever colour coded referencing."
"Guaranteed to enhance enjoyment and understanding of Shakespeare's work."
"Stunningly useful book"
"A modern and dynamic approach to Shakespeare's language usage"
"It is not only scholarly and comprehensive, it is hugely enjoyable"
"A charming and deliciously meaty book, it's a must for every primary and secondary English and Drama classroom in my view, and essential for the school library too."
"It's a joyful celebration as much as an aid to teaching and learning and affectionate as it is scholarly"
