William Shakespeare Group
Welcome to the eNotes Shakespeare Group
This group is for general questions and discussions about Shakespeare's life and times. If you have a specific question about one of his works, please visit the group page for that work, such as Hamlet.
This group is moderated by eNotes editors with an expertise in Shakespeare. Take advantage of their and other eNotes members' knowledge by participating in this group. You can:
- Ask A Question if you have a specific question that needs answering. More than 90% of questions receive answers.
- Create a topic on the Discussion Board. This is your best choice if you are looking for a wide range of opinions, have a more subjective question, or are just looking for a lively discussion.
