A lot of the information given in the summary was slightly wrong and/or misleading. The deeper meaning of what was kind-a happening was correct, but the interpetation was all wrong! Only people who have actually read the play would understand these little mistakes. So I guess that means: read the play and not this summary!!!
Exactly totally agree with ya! the summaries confused me! the play is pretty straight forward once you get into it, it gets easier to understand language.
I think that while the summaries were incorrect to an extent, they helped to provide people with a broad overview of the play and break down barriers to the language used in Shakespeare's work. They give people the gist of what's going to happen.
