Test Your Knowledge of Shakespeare!

Let’s have some fun with a few Shakespeare quizzes. 

Go to http://shakespeareandbeyond.folger.edu/2017/09/01/quiz-shakespeares-genres/#more-6301 to take a quiz testing your knowledge of the genres (comedy, history, tragedy, romance or poem) of The Bard’s works.

At http://shakespeareandbeyond.folger.edu/2017/08/01/quiz-props-shakespeare-plays/#more-6191, you can take a quiz to see if you can identify the play by a prominent prop found in it. 

http://www.shakespearesglobe.com/playground/read/quizzes offers nine quizzes to test your knowledge of the playwright, his plays, the theatre at the time, and the Elizabethan age. 

Can you differentiate between Biblical quotations and those written by the legendary scribe?  Go to http://blog.oxforddictionaries.com/2013/04/bible-or-bard/.

Can you correctly identify Shakespeare’s plays from emojis?  Go to https://www.buzzfeed.com/leilak46c14ea7e/guess-the-shakespeare-play-1bmnx?utm_term=.dj4Ev8nOp#.mgEvYPa12 to find out. 

And for Canadians, http://www.cbc.ca/arts/can-you-ace-our-shakespeare-in-canada-quiz-1.4262913 asks you to find connections between Canada and Shakespeare.

Make The Bard proud!
