No Fear Shakespeare: Romeo and Juliet

http://nfs.sparknotes.com/romeojuliet/

Why is Diedrich providing this link that will give you the "Original" text side-by-side with a "Modern" day translation?

Answer; He knows that students are aware of this resource, along with other "tools" that students use. In addition, students will STILL have to read the Shakespearean text in class for the purpose of developing an understanding of the "richness" and "beauty" of this language-which is ENGLISH!
