Excellent resource for the classroom,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Othello: Oxford School Shakespeare (Paperback)
This text includes it all for both the classroom and for independent study of Shakespeare's Othello.
It provides helpful background information about the play and about the time period in which it's set. In addition, it includes photos and graphics. In the back of the book, it includes a section called, Exploring Othello in the Classroom. This is the best version I've seen as of yet and am glad I stumbled upon it!! You won't be disappointed with this series!
