Another interpretation of a classic

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2002
The Bottom Line: This is a must read for anyone interested in English literature. It is one of the greats and may be a topic at cocktail parties.
Review: The line that exists between good and evil is easily blurred and Shakespeare's Hamlet exploits the ambiguity of the distinction for dramatic flavor. A close reading of the play will expose the villains as heroes and vice versa. As soon as the reader...

To Read or not to Read?

Date of Review:  Oct 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: This is definetly a work that everyone should read. It is one of Shakespeare's best and has an excellent plot.
Review: My senior AP English class in high school has been reading Hamlet and discussing it for over a month. Most of the students seem to like but not love Hamlet.

Background- Hamlet fits the basic definition of the tragedy genre. The main...

Hamlet, a great Tragedy

Date of Review:  Dec 8, 1999
Review: This Shakespearean tragedy is one of my favorites, and one of the finer plays that I have read. The plot has everything, including lust, secrets, betrayal, and of course, murder. It is a great story of vengence and revenge, all leading up to a...

Hamlet : The Tragic Hero

Date of Review:  Nov 27, 2000
Review: If a man were to stop another on the street and ask him to quote from any of Shakespeare's plays, "To be, or not to be: that is the question" (Hamlet III.i.56) would almost certainly be the line to exit the stranger's mouth. The reasoning behind...

A Story of Revenge

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2000
Review: CAUTION! THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS!


HAMLET is without a doubt a classic play written by none other than William Shakespeare. In my review, I question Hamlet's indecisiveness. That is not to say HAMLET is a bad story, I am simply...

Hamlet?s View of Women

Date of Review:  Mar 24, 2000
Review: In William Shakespeare?s Hamlet, the role of women is reflective of the Renaissance period. In the Renaissance, being weak, fickle and dependent on men were common depiction of women. The two women Hamlet reveals, Gertrude and Ophelia, are two women...

Need a good book, try Hamlet, heres my thoughts

Date of Review:  Jan 14, 2000
Review: The play, Hamlet, has been called the ultimate tragedy since Hamlet is by far Shakespeare?s most intelligent character, yet he is unable to act. He is in one man soldierly, scholarly, and honest, according to Ophelia. He is the only one of...

Action vs. Words: the Victors in Hamlet

Review: For generation upon generation children have been taught to use force in their language and to restrain from force in their physical actions. However, it is this very hesitancy towards action that has lead to the downfall of countless characters...
