Hamlet remains the most studied of Shakespeare's tragedies and this guide examines it as a turning point in his writing career. This lively and informative guide reveals Hamlet as marking a turning point in Shakespeare''s use of language and dramatic form as well as addressing the key problem at the play''s core: Hamlet''s inaction. It also looks at recent critical approaches to the play and its theatre history, including the recent David Tennant / RSC Hamlet on both stage and TV screen. |
