Source Shakespeare - concordance, keyword and advanced searching,
statistics, the text of the plays, find characters, and a search of all the
poetry as well. Remarkable. Based on the Globe edition of 1864.
- Shakespeare Searched.
A great new search tool from Clusty Labs that permits searching by character
or work, sponsored by the Folger Shakespeare Library. The version of
the plays and sonnets searched is, as usual, the complete Moby Shakespeare.
- The
Works of
the Bard site. It allows for searching of all the
works, or a selected work, and the filtering and selection features actually work.

RhymeZone.

- A specialized Hamlet search called
Hyperhamlet.
A truly amazing site from the University of Basel. ""Hyperhamlet" is a
new project at the University of Basel, a database that collects and orders
references to Hamlet in all areas of culture. Who quoted Hamlet? Which passages were most popular when? Etc. It is based on the
conviction that we need a cultural history of Shakespeare's plays, and that
in studying the status and the meaning of a play we should not entirely rely
on criticism and performance history."
