It has been suggested--Hamlet should have sub stituted some harmless instructions. But--suppose the king of England had detained Hamlet pending further orders from Denmark. His fate would have been certain. 3. At least they knew that the journey was not for Hamlet's good. 4. When they lowered themselves to serve such a master, they must take the consequences. They may be good enough men, but they are in the same boat with a very bad man, and so they perish with him. "jev Tov a-vvaXXda-a-ovTO'S opviOoi fipOTofc Slkcllov avSpa Toto-i Swrcefttcrrtpoi's.

The King keeps them completely in the dark, and they are quite content to continue so, and obey his orders implicitly. It is really the King and their own servility that is the cause of their death.

Arguably Shakespeare's most famous play, Hamlet is studied widely at universities internationally. Approaching the play through an analysis of its key characters is particularly useful as there are few plays which have commanded so much critical attention in relation to "character" as Hamlet. The guide includes: an introductory overview of the text, including a brief discussion of the background to the play including its sources, reception and critical tradition; an overview of the narrative structure; chapters discussing in detail the representation of the key characters including Hamlet, Gertrude and Ophelia as well as the more minor characters; a conclusion reminding students of the links between the characters and the key themes and issues and a guide to further reading.
""Like the life of any contained society," writes Bert O. States, "the phenomenal life of character reveals itself in a process of endurance, repetition, and interchange within a world that has a coherent character in itself and makes consistent demands on its citizens. One cannot study character thoroughly by making spot behavioral checks." Likening his approach to that of a field anthropologist conducting a long-term study of a single society, States explores the nature of dramatic character by examining the inhabitants of one of the world's best-known plays." "In the first part of "Hamlet" and the Concept of Character, States lays the theoretical groundwork by exploring such topics as the relationship of character change to character persistence; the theory of traits; the interplay between character and environment; and the problem of the humors and their obvious connection to Hamlet. The second part examines the significance of the major characters of the play (King Hamlet, Claudius, Gertrude, Polonius, Laertes, Ophelia, and Horatio) in the formation of the Hamlet "mystery.""--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
