“This timely edition glosses Shakespeare’s words which regularly stump students but which their overly optimistic teachers never noticeThis is an edition for the students we actually teach, students for whom Early Modern English is a foreign language. Extremely useful and welcome.”—D. E. Richardson, University of the South (Sewanee)
“If any work deserves a student’s closest attention, it is Hamlet. Burton Raffel’s fully annotated edition is a teacher’s and student’s dream: the words are fully explained, and they get a wonderful essay by Harold Bloom as well.”—George Soule, Carleton College
“In a market glutted with editions of Shakespeare, this one stands out. The notes are helpful but not overwhelming, making it a great choice for classroom instructors and independent readers alike.”—Kathryn Levesque, Choate Rosemary Hall
“This edition is an invaluable resource for teachers and students who want to do justice to the complexity of the play’s language.”—Tanya Pollard, Montclair State University
