Hamlet: Text of the Play, the Actors' Gallery, Contexts, Criticism, Afterlives, Resources reviews from people you don't follow
This is the third or fourth time I've had to read this for my classes, and I have got to say, it does not disappoint! I love how I am able to catch new details each time I read it.
This time I focused on Ophelia and her "madness." I have some theories about why she acts mad, and that it is not necessarily her losing control, but gaining it in her own way. This is the first moment where she is able to act on her own in the whole play. The first time that she does not have a male controlling all of her actions.
I love being able to see the different interpretations of the play both on stage and on the screen. The to be or not to be speech will always be one of my favorites.
This is in my top three favorite Shakespeare plays of all time because of the intricacies in the plot and the characters. I can't wait to get to study this again with a new professor to get different insights on the play itself.
