The English Zone!

This site is great for wanting to go deeper into Hamlet. The wonderful aspect to this website is the fact that it doesn't give many answers, but mostly questions. It really forces the readers to think instead of feeding the answers to them. There are questions specific to hamlet's flaw, delay and famous soliloquy "to be, or not to be." It also has general discussion questions on the play as a whole. One other helpful feature of this site is that it has a link to another site that translates Hamlet text into modern language. If there is a passage that the reader doesn't understand, this site is very helpful. However, it does summarize, so it should never be used as a replacement for the book. Important details could be missed!

Here's the URL:
