Shakespeare should not be adapted because adaptations take away from the beauty of the original. By rewording Shakespeare to make it more understandable, readers are not able to realize and appreciate the work that went into incorporating blank and rhymed verse. Also, if readers are only exposed to modernized versions of Shakespeare, they will miss out on a great resource that enlightens us to the vastly different culture of that time period.
