The Beeb points at the British Library's Shakespeare in quarto, a collection of 93 copies of 21 plays by the Bard printed in quarto and now digitized for your perusal.I wonder how long till we'll have the majority of the pre-1923 (the current dividing line between public domain and still copyright-able) English language pieces of literature online and available for perusal in this digitized way alongside the Project Gutenberg way. Cool stuff like this makes me sometimes wish I was focused on some other era than the Twentieth Century.
