Scholars now encounter, interpret, and disseminate Shakespeare's language through an increasing variety of digital resources, including online editions such as the Internet Shakespeare Editions (ISE), searchable lexical corpora such as the Early English Books Online-Text Creation Partnership (EEBO-TCP) or the Lexicons of Early Modern English (LEME) collections, high-quality digital facsimiles such as the Folger Shakespeare Library's Digital Image Collection, text visualization tools such as Voyant, apps for reading and editing on mobile devices, and more. What new insights do these tools offer about the ways Shakespeare's words made meaning in their own time? What kinds of historical or historicizing arguments can digital editions make about Shakespeare's language? A growing body of work in the digital humanities allows textual critics to explore new approaches to editing in digital environments, and enables language historians to ask and answer new questions about Shakespeare's words. The authors in this unique book explicitly bring together the two fields of textual criticism and language history in an exploration of the ways in which new tools are expanding our understanding of Early Modern English.

We do we read his plays at school? What is his importance for English literature? Even though William Shakespeare died 1616, even today everybody knows him and his work. He was an actor, a business man, a poet and a playwright. He was born in Stratford-on-Avon in 1564 and was the son of the mayor of the town. Writing comedies, history plays, tragedies and sonnets made him the greatest dramatist and poet in the English language. In this work, I would like to focus on an exemplarily sonnet and excerpts of some plays of Shakespeare, later on his language in order to show his importance in English and moreover in World Literature.

It is a bitter fact that many of our young graduates lose wonderful opportunities in the global market because of lack of proficiency in English. Even though frequent use of SMS language and too much dependence on technology have made communication easy, it seems to pose a threat to the use of traditional English, which still has its own uniqueness and beauty. It cannot be denied that in those days, literature was the only powerful tool for enhancing language skills. A number of approaches and methods have emerged, but literature remains as a powerful tool in acquisition of language skills. Thus a sincere attempt has been made by the authors to instill in young learners the interest to study books on literature.
