shakespeare.com's First Web Folio edition is currently composed of all Shakespeare's plays—poems will join them eventually—and a search engine. First posted 4/17/00, in anticipation of Shakespeare's 436th birthday.

Follow the links below, presented in First Folio order, to the play of your choice. You can also scroll to the bottom of each page to machine translate a scene to one of the major European languages. Translation quality is not guaranteed - and for long scenes it won't be complete - but at least it should be fairly literal.
