An introduction to the author of the works concerned:

The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark tragedy by William Shakespeare is a and one of his most well-known and oft-quoted plays.

Written between 1600 and the summer of 1602 , this masterpiece of print in 1603 pirated in a version known as the version with no authority. The authorised Second Quarto Elizabethan theatre (Q2) followed shortly after the first, while a slightly altered and reduced version was published in the First Folio first appeared in Bad Quarto , a of Shakespeare's complete works. See Folios and Quartos (Shakespeare) Second Quarto text and the Folio text.

. The text in modern editions is a compromise between the

In theatre , Hamlet is possibly the most often produced work in almost every western country and it is considered a crucial test for mature actors (somewhat unfortunately, since Hamlet is supposed to be a young man). Hamlet's " To be, or not to be " soliloquy (Act Three, Scene One), the most popular passage of the play, is so well known that it has become a stumbling-block for many modern actors.

The play-within-the-play scene, 1875-1876.

The background of the works (in relation to the author’s motivation to create this work) Hamlet

is the one of Shakespeares great

tragedy, was written during the first part of the 17th century (1600 or 1601), first formed in July 1602, published in printed from in 1603, and made an enlarged edition in 1604.

For discussing analyze that period background when the

work was written. In Shakespeares period,

Christianity was the religion that people believed in commonly, then its most

important part was attention of this lifes

glory;

Hamlet,

we firstly have to

it is fundamental on persons- chasing the

personal potential, this lifes glory, the esthetics beyond time concept, yet theres a

problem- they also faced to the empty of this life, therefore, the Renaissance melancholy appeared; Also,

the ruler

s authority

was another important part in Italy then, it encouraged a success ruler could build his power by every ways, including bleeding wars and so on. Shakespeare reflected those in

Hamlet,

and tried to discuss the necessity.

Moreover, let us discuss the other aspect-

the history of Englands theatre. During the

period of Queen Elizabeth the first (in the late 16th century), the national power was more and more prosperous, for this reason the theatre and play developed. The English play writers imitated Rome epic to create Latin writings and English scripts, that is mixed with classical scholarship, England original play features, moral concept, some popular and low-level factors. Revenge play became a very popular play style at that time, for instance, there are revenge, ghost and chorus- that is

Hamlet

s prototype.

At last, Shakespeare created

Hamlet,

and

might

have some reference sources as below,

Historia Danica, Ur-Hamlet,

written with Latin by Saxo Grammaticus during the 12th century

Histories Tragiques,

a prose work by the French writer Francois de Belleforest a play script written by Thomas Kyd.

The summary of the plot/story of the works The story basic on a man called Hamlet, who was a princess in Denmark, was trying to find out who killed his father. According to a

ghost who claimed he was Hamletfather

demanded Hamlet had to revenge for his dead. For being to find out who was a killer, he had to pretend himself as a mad man, and asked the actors to perform a play about the murder of Gonzago, and told the actor one scene in the play that showed processed of murder of his father, to be able to discover whether the ghost told him the truth, that his father was killed by his uncle Claudius.

In the Perform Claudiuss action let Hamlet

believe that Claudius is guilty that he was the one who took his father life by pours

poison in his fathers ears. After being

departed to London by his uncle king Claudius who believed he was dangerous for his life, Hamlet managed to sneak back to Denmark, on the way back to palace he knew the dead of his lover Ophelia who was drown in the rive, he showed the love he had for Ophelia. He was forced to fight with Laertes because he killed his father Polonius by accident, in the end the Queen Gertrude was dead by drank a poisoned drink which was planed for Hamlet by the king Claudius, Hamlet and Laertes were both dead in the fighting, King Claudius was dead too by Hamlet force him to drink poison drink. . From:Judy Chen

Topic Questions :

1.Think about Hamlets relationship with

Ophelia. Does he love her? Does he stop loving her? Did he ever love her? What evidence can you find in the play to support your opinion?

In different evidence play showed that Hamlet loves Ophelia. First of all, in Act One, Scene Three, Hamlet had said some love to Ophelia before, and in this play Ophelia tells her brother and father, she believes Hamlets is interesting in her. Second, in Act Two, Scene Two, Ophelia claims that while she was sowing Hamlet came to her and took her by the wrist and looked at her for a long time, and Hamlet then turned to walk away,

all the while keeping his eyes on Ophelia and even walking through the doors without averting his gaze, his behavior looks somebody got mad when he lost his love. In Act Three, Scene One, Ophelia hand back some of the tokens which Hamlet proclaimed his love for her to Hamlet. Last, in Act Five, Scene One, Hamlet declaimed and shouted to everybody said he loved Ophelia more than forty thousand of her brothers combined at grave where Ophelia was buried.

Hamlet doesnt stop to loving her even when

the time Ophelia ceases all contact with

Hamlet by her fathers orders or even Ophelia

returned his letters unopened.

Hamlet loves Ophelia even she couldnt

understand what kind of love Hamlet has for her. .

Ophelia likes Hamlet immensely but only as a true friend, not as a lover, she is the female friend equivalent of Horatio.

2. Analyze the use of comedy in Hamlet , paying particular attention to the gravediggers , Osric , and Polonius . Does comedy serve merely to relieve the tension of the tragedy , or do the comic scenes serve a more serious thematic purpose as well ?

Shakespeares works were collected and

printed in various editions in the century following his death, and by the early eighteenth century his reputation as the greatest poet ever to write in English was well established. The unprecedented admiration garnered by his works led to a

fierce curiosity about Shakespeares life, but

the dearth of biographical information has

left many details of Shakespeares personal

history shrouded in mystery.

Some people have concluded from this fact

that Shakespeares plays were really written by someone elseFrancis Bacon and the

Earl of Oxford are the two most popular

candidatesbut the support for this claim is

overwhelmingly circumstantial, and the theory is not taken seriously by many scholars.

As the Renaissance spread to other countries in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, however, a more skeptical strain of humanism developed, stressing the limitations of human understanding.

For example, the sixteenth-century French humanist, Michel de Montaigne, was no less interested in studying human experiences than the earlier humanists were, but he maintained that the world of experience was a world of appearances, and that human beings could never hope to see past those

appearances into the realitiesthat lie

behind them. This is the world in which Shakespeare places his characters. Hamlet is faced with the difficult task of correcting an injustice that he can never have sufficient

knowledge ofa dilemma that is by no

means unique, or even uncommon.

And while Hamlet is fond of pointing out questions that cannot be answered because they concern supernatural and metaphysical matters, the play as a whole chiefly demonstrates the difficulty of knowing the

truth about other peopletheir guilt or

innocence, their motivations, their feelings, their relative states of sanity or insanity. The world of other people is a world of appearances, and world.

Hamlet

is, fundamentally, a play about the difficulty of living in that www.SparkNotes Hamlet Context.htm

3.Suicide to Hamlet We can find out several events about suicide in the novel of Hamlet. First in Act 1, Scene 2, wallowing in gloom, Hamlet wishes that his living flesh would melt into nothingness. Life is flat and weary for the melancholy Prince. If God had not ruled suicide a mortal sin, Hamlet would readily escape the uselessness of the world through self slaughter. Then in Act 1, Scene 5, charged with avenging his father's murder, Hamlet curses his luck and laments that he was ever born. Earlier, the suicidal prince wished for death. Now he wishes he had never seen life.

In Act 2, Scene 2, Hamlet's melancholy deepens and his suicidal self-hatred grows. The withdrawn Prince no longer feels a desire to be amongst men or women. All is worthless, dead dust to him. Hamlet condemns himself for being a rogue and a pigeon-livered coward. He hates his inactivity and his life. In Act 3, Scene 3, Hamlet wonders whether it is better to live with misery or die with uncertainty. Life is nothing but suffering and enduring fortune's unfair blows. Suicide is the ultimate defense against life's troubles. Suicide offers peaceful sleep; but what dreams may interrupt that sleep?

Hamlet is afraid of the uncertain afterlife and those unknown nightmares that may be in store. Death offers peace, but the dreaded unknown makes men too cowardly to commit suicide. In Act 4, Scene 7, Ophelia has drowned in a suspected suicide. Driven mad by Polonius' murder and Hamlet's betrayal, Ophelia fell from a willow tree into the river. Without struggle, the singing maiden surrendered to the water and drowned. In Act 5, Scene 1, Because suicide is a mortal sin, the gravediggers wonder whether Ophelia will receive a Christian burial.

Ophelia's funeral procession is short and modest. The harsh priest says that her death was suspicious. Without her royal ties, Ophelia would have been buried in unsanctified ground. In Act 5, Scene 2, the culminating suicide is the death of the entire royal clan by its own familial corruption. During the royal massacre, Laertes is slashed with his own poisoned sword. Claudius is killed by his own treacherous plan. Gertrude willfully seizes the chalice that poisons her, and Hamlet dies because his delayed quest for vengeance has led to this final massacre.

Denmark has crumbled because the royal family has killed itself through betrayal and vice.

The question of his own death plagues Hamlet as well, as he repeatedly contemplates whether or not suicide is a morally legitimate action in an unbearably

painful world. Hamlets grief and misery is

such that he frequently longs for death to end his suffering, but he fears that if he commits suicide, he will be consigned to eternal suffering in hell because of the

Christian religions prohibition of suicide. In

his famous

To be or not to besoliloquy (III.i), Hamlet

philosophically concludes that no one would choose to endure the pain of life if he or she were not afraid of what will come after death, and that it is this fear which causes complex moral considerations to interfere with the capacity for action.

Hamlet

is without question the most famous play in the English language. Probably written in 1601 or 1602, the tragedy is amilestone in Shakespeare's dramatic development; according to most critics, the playwright achieved artistic maturity in this work through his brilliant depiction of the hero's struggle with two opposing forces: moral integrity and the need to avenge his father's murder. Shakespeare's focus on this conflict was are evolutionary departure from contemporary revenge tragedies which tended to graphically dramatize violent acts on stage in that it emphasized the hero's dilemma rather than the depiction of bloody deeds.

Individual response to Hamlet

School No:89110159 Name:黃振郎(1) Shattered by his mothers decision to marry Claudius so soon after her husbands death,

Hamlet becomes cynical about women in general, showing a particular obsession with what he perceives to be a connection between female sexuality and moral corruption. This motif of misogyny, or hatred of women, occurs sporadically throughout the play, but it is an important inhibiting

factor in Hamlets relationships with Ophelia

and Gertrude. He urges Ophelia to go to a

nunnery and exclaims of Gertrude, Frailty, thy name is woman(I.ii.146).

One facet of

Hamlet

s exploration of the difficulty of attaining true knowledge is slipperiness of language.

Name:黃振郎 (2)

Words are used to communicate ideas, but they can also be used to distort the truth, manipulate other people, and serve as tools in corrupt quests for power. Claudius is the most obvious example of a man who manipulates words to enhance his own power. The sinister uses of words are represented by images of ears and hearing,

from Claudiuss murder of the king by pouring poison into his ear to Hamlets claim to Horatio that I have words to speak in thine ear will make thee dumb(IV.vi.21). The poison poured in the kings ear by Claudius is

used by the ghost to symbolize the corrosive

effect of Claudiuss dishonesty on the health

of Denmark. Declaring that the story that he was killed by a snake is a lie, he says that

the whole ear of Denmarkis Rankly abused. . . .(I.v.3638).

Name:黃振郎 (3)

Poison plays an important role in the play. We first run into poison when we learn about the death of King Hamlet. He was killed by his brother, who poured poison in his ear.

Then, Hamlets mom Gertrude is killed by a

poisonous drink. Hamlet and Laertes are killed by the poisonous rapier. King Claudius also dies from the poisoned rapier. The soliloquies are dramatically rhetorical speeches of self-reflection. Hamlet is a culmination of these characters, capable of far more complexity and psychological introspection. Political interpretations of Hamlet also abound, in which Hamlet hides the spirit of political resistance, or represent a challenge to a corrupt regime.

Here is Hamlet's most famous speech as it appears in the Bad Quarto.

Hamlet's speech to his mother has less to do with the murder and how it is wrong than with her sexual acting-out and how it is disgusting. Many of us today will see this as a sexual double-standard from Shakespeare's own time. Maybe this is true; in any case, I'm old enough to remember the double standard and how wrong it was. Instead, focus on the queen's adultery and ingratitude, wrongs against her former husband. Now that Hamlet has killed Polonius, he has become himself a murderer and the object of Laertes's just quest for revenge. Laertes is son to Polonius either as culpable as Claudius, or excuse him entirely. be understanding If was me as same as to strike back too,we heard Hamlet talk about his own "patient merit".

Now Hamlet is all-too-human had hideous crimes.else I hope Hamlet and his mother reaffirm their love for one another. From now Hamlet will no longer talk about life not being worth living. She climbed a willow that hung out over a river. She fell into the river, simply continued singing, and drowned when her clothes waterlogged. Please note that this is obviously an accident, not a suicide -- just as when a crazy person walks in front of a bus nowadays. I think Claudius gives it out as a suicide just to inflame Laertes. We don't know who saw Ophelia drown, or why nobody tried to save her. Perhaps an observer from the castle battlements, or perhaps her last acts were reconstructed from the scene, or perhaps we are asking the wrong question Analyze the use of comedy in Hamlet, paying particular attention to the gravediggers, Osric, and Polonius. Does comedy serve merely to relieve the tension of the tragedy, or do the comic scenes serve a more serious thematic purpose as well?

There seems to be some mysterious design behind life which makes things work out and gives life its meaning. Unfortunately for Hamlet and other decent people, it doesn't always bring about altogether happy endings. Still, it's grand being part of things. Hamlet says he is dying, In the medieval and renaissance world, it was the special privilege of the court jester to tell the truth. He could do this without fear of reprisals. In Shakespeare's plays (notably "Twelfth Night", "As You Like It", and "King Lear"), the jester's role as truth teller is central. "Hamlet" has dealt with the themes of honesty, dishonesty, and truth-telling. In this most famous scene of all, tells We all end up in the same place, dead.

(1) In my idea, Hamlet is a waver person. His waver makes many people die or suicide, for example, innocent Ophelia choose to suicide doubtfully, Hamlet kills Polonius wrongly, Getrude drink the poisonous wine wrongly, Laertes is hurt by the poisonous sword, and Hamlet suicide to end this story. We can say that no one is the winner. Although Claudius

starts the tragedy, however, Hamlets waver

leads the story go to the world of death. Because Hamlet wastes time to do meaningless waver, not to make the most important decision, to suffer or to fight against Claudius, as the result, many unrelated people are involved in the terrible storm.

(2) Ophelia is the most poor victim. Her innocence reflects the other people selfish, sly, and cruel; her obedience makes her die in paternal society. She is the traditional female, and is obedient to her father, brother and the king, even trust her lover-Hamlet completely, however, everyone lies to her. This role of Ophelia appears in our society nowadays, maybe “she” is my mother, friend, and even myself. The other key point I want to state, is the influence of religion. At that time the story mentioned, moral and religion connected together mostly. People believed Christianity at that time, and Christianity rules were most moral ones, for instance,

(3) Christianity didn’t allow its believers to suicide, the person die of suicide cannot be buried by Christian way. We can discover the powerful influence of religion at certain time.

Lastly, Shakespeare uses a great deal of soliloquy to make closer to audience and describe the feelings of human beings. That simile and comparison are the most important ways, is used to describe complex of human beings widespreadly, especially in soliloquy.

the individual response to the works by

葉曇樺

The two most famous statement in Hamlet, “ (4) to be or not to be, that is the question.”, and “ O, that this too solid flesh would melt”, represents to die or to live, to suffer or to fight, desire or scary of death, and so on, which makes the whole play have more measure of capacity, and to describe those human complex more adequately.
