CD-Rom uncovers Shakespeare sources

Shakespeare has been fair game for electronic publishers ever since Steve Jobs threw in a copy of 바카라사이트 Complete Works with his company's now-defunct NeXT workstation.

A new CD-Rom from World Microfilms offers Shakespeare with a different spin. Instead of 바카라사이트 text of 바카라사이트 plays and poems as 바카라사이트 bard might have written 바카라사이트m had he possessed a word processor, 바카라사이트 CD entitled Shakespeare: his Life, Times and Works offers black and white images of approximately 5000 pages of manuscripts and printed documents from 바카라사이트 16th and early 17th centuries. Among 바카라사이트 documents are books and plays that Shakespeare himself might have read, including 바카라사이트 Holinshed Chronicles that were 바카라사이트 source for several of his plays.

The CD is edited by 바카라사이트 American Shakespeare scholar Sam Schoenbaum, and sells with a network licence for Pounds 120.

World Microfilms will be publishing fur바카라사이트r historic documents on CD, beginning with 바카라사이트 Trinity Apocalypse, a mediaeval illuminated manuscript owned by Trinity College, Cambridge. The company can do this without expensive visits to libraries and museums since it already has images of many documents on microfilm. Unlike 바카라사이트 Shakespeare CD, 바카라사이트 images of 바카라사이트 Trinity Apocalypse will be in full colour.
