Obvious attempt at getting someone else to answer his homework. "SMART" is far from the word I'd use to describe you.

>>7878205
I take it back. The site lists only two:
>Sources and Adaptations
http://drmarkwomack.com/engl-3306/handouts/sources-and-adaptations/
>The Barge Speech
>Nahum Tate’s King Lear
And both are, if anything, a case of plagiarism and not quotations
>>7878209
Nigga, get on your knees: I'm still SMART.

WAAAIT! The second bit ain't even Shakespeare quoting. It's Shakespeare BEING quoted. Ahaha!
>Nahum Tate’s adaptation of King Lear debuted in 1681. In a dedicatory epistle to the published play, Tate says: “I found the whole [of Shakespeare’s King Lear] … a heap of jewels, unstrung and unpolished; yet so dazzling in their disorder, that I soon perceived I had seized a treasure. ’Twas my good fortune to light on one expedient to rectify what was wanting in the regularity and probability of the tale, which was to run through the whole a love betwixt Edgar and Cordelia.”
SO: The only case we have so far is shakes using Plutarch's description of Cleopatra's Barge in a bloody history play about Cleopatra and Anthony. He echos a Historian's Description in a History play! A clear case of T.S.Elliot style obscure literary quotations!!
