William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing: The Restored Klingon Version, translated by Nick Nicholas as paghmo' tIn mIS, continues the trend Nicholas and Andrew Strader began in 1996 with The Klingon Hamlet in translating Shakespearean texts into Klingon following the Klingon characters’ Shakespearean references in Nicholas Meyer’s 1991 film, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. In his introduction, Nicholas references Khamlet and the as-yet unpublished One Dreams in the Middle of the Hot Season. The book features parallel translation, with Wil’yam Shex’pir’s Klingon text on the left (using the Roman alphabet) and the Terran English on the right. As a linguistic exercise, Nicholas includes extensive footnotes about his translations and linguistic subtleties. Those looking to learn more about the Klingon language will find this a particularly useful volume as it shows the language in use with subtext informing the choice of titles and terms for describing characters’ relationships.
