The Elizabethan Hamlet: A Study of the Sources and of Shakespere’s Environment, to Show That the Mad Scenes Had a Comic Aspect Now Ignored (1895)

John Corbin

""The Elizabethan Hamlet: A Study Of The Sources And Of Shakespere???????s Environment, To Show That The Mad Scenes Had A Comic Aspect Now Ignored"" is a book written by John Corbin in 1895. The book is a comprehensive study of William Shakespeare's famous play ""Hamlet"" and its sources, as well as the cultural and historical context in which it was written. Corbin argues that the mad scenes in the play, which are often interpreted as tragic and serious, actually had a comic aspect that has been ignored by modern readers and audiences. He supports his argument by examining the sources Shakespeare used to create the play, including earlier versions of the Hamlet story, as well as the social and political climate of Elizabethan England. ""The Elizabethan Hamlet"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Shakespearean scholarship and the cultural history of the Elizabethan era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
