Classical Shakespeare

'Hamlet' can be written about in so many ways. The tragedy which runs throughout is of great importance to the structure of the play's plot, the development of the many interesting characters, and the final bloodthirsty conclusion. Shakespeare carefully and thoroughly develops the character of Hamlet to display him as a person who suffers a weakness in making concrete decisions; like the typical young man that Shakespeare considers, Hamlet dithers, is led astray by wondering thoughts and even fears, and eventually falls into an abyss of madness which few other characters in literature can be seen to do. The book itself is well laid out, with a decent foreword and endnotes. Recommended.
