Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
"Romeo, Romeo...". There is a new answer to Juliet's age-old question--Romeo is on this fantastic CD-ROM. And not only is he lurking here, but it seems as though a breath of fresh air may yet revive him. Perhaps one of Shakespeare's most famous lines seems a little tired by now, but there's nothing tired about this product.
As well as an audio performance of the play and some superb video footage from the BBC's lavish production, this package contains information which will be of interest to students, budding actors and even Shakespearean experts alike. A hexagonal homepage allows the user to click on one of several options. Each section houses several links and subsections, and here you come across information as diverse as the genesis of the myth of Romeo and Juliet in Ovid and Xenophon, Shakepeare's meditations on mortality, time and the family, and the importance of costume in Elizabethan theatre. This phenomenal breadth is quite apart from the pièce de résistance: the wonderful character résumés, complete with hypertext links to important moments in the play which illustrate the essence of the character in question.
The most impressive thing about this CD-ROM is that it really gets you under the skin of the play in a new and interactive way, which makes it an excellent product, one that cannot be rated too highly. It proves that there is life in everything--even a line which has been so repeatedly quoted that it has become a cliché. --Toby Green
