AB  - Contrasts two adaptations of Romeo and Juliet by Warren King created for No Sweat Shakespeare (q.v.), one in the "Shakespeare for Kids" series ("aimed at children 8-11") and the second in the "Modern English Shakespeare" series ("translated as an easy to read exciting teenage novel"). Uses corpus linguistics techniques to analyze King's different use of language, finding, for instance, more concrete words and simpler vocabulary in the "for Kids" edition. English summary, 43.
