Question

Your teacher has assigned you to write a research paper on the stage history of famous productions of William Shakespeare's play, Othello. If you began your research by using an internet database, which search would be MOST helpful for finding useful sources for this topic?
A) Famous Elizabethan Playwrights and Essayists

B) Articles on the Life and Times of William Shakespeare

C) Famous Stage Productions of Shakespeare's Greatest Plays

D) Literary Criticism of Elizabethan Tragedies and Comedies

Answer 1

Because the research paper you were assigned to is specifically Shakespeare's famous productions of Othello, I believe the answer would be C, Famous Stage Productions of Shakespeare's Greatest Plays.

Answer 2

The most effective option would be "Famous Stage Productions of Shakespeare's Greatest Plays." The other options titles are somewhat related, but not nearly as relevant, focusing on William Shakespeare's life, Elizabethans plays or not mentioning the plays at all.  Making C the most accurate answer.
