Be particularly careful to avoid ‘lifting' any material – including any from this web site! Copying even a small amount is plagiarism and its inclusion in coursework essays will be looked upon scathingly and severely penalised by examination boards.
- Typing in ‘Shakespeare Measure for Measure' to Google produces more than a million responses! Some are editions of the text, some study guides, some essays. Although you will certainly find some useful material, remember that none of it is going to help you understand the play if you do not already have a thorough knowledge of the text from reading it yourself.

- An interesting website which really looks at the play as drama is the RSC's guide based on their 2003 production
