Shakespeare Resources

A few of my favorites in the vast and complex world of e-Shakespeare.

The Folger Library 

The hub of Shakespeare Studies in North America, the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, DC (located behind the Supreme Court) is one of my favorite places.  The website provides access to the online catalog (HAMNET) and to selected electronic resources.

The British Library 

The greatest library in the world, located in London, also has an excellent web presence, including online access to Shakespeare’s plays in Quarto.

The Shakespeare Association of America

The largest association of Shakespeare scholars in the United States hosts an annual (graduate-student friendly) conference each spring.

The Renaissance Society of America

Another scholarly association, the RSA is broader-based than the SAA, and includes historians, classicists, musicologists, etc.
