Hamlet William Shakespeare

Notes

1. ^ The Arden Shakespeare third series published Q2, with appendices, in their first volume,[53] and the F1 and Q1 texts in their second volume.[54] The RSC Shakespeare is the F1 text with additional Q2 passages in an appendix.[55] The New Cambridge Shakespeare series has begun to publish separate volumes for the separate quarto versions that exist of Shakespeare's plays.[56]
2. ^ See Romans 12:19: Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
3. ^ See the articles on the Reformation in Denmark–Norway and Holstein and Church of Denmark for details.
4. ^ Hamlet has 208 quotations in The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations; it takes up 10 of 85 pages dedicated to Shakespeare in the 1986 Bartlett's Familiar Quotations (14th ed. 1968). For examples of lists of the greatest books, see Harvard Classics, Great Books, Great Books of the Western World, Harold Bloom's The Western Canon, St. John's College reading list, and Columbia College Core Curriculum.
5. ^ Hattaway asserts that "Richard Burbage ... played Hieronimo and also Richard III but then was the first Hamlet, Lear, and Othello"[156] and Thomson argues that the identity of Hamlet as Burbage is built into the dramaturgy of several moments of the play: "we will profoundly misjudge the position if we do not recognise that, whilst this is Hamlet talking about the groundlings, it is also Burbage talking to the groundlings".[157] See also Thomson on the first player's beard.[158]
6. ^ Samuel Pepys records his delight at the novelty of Hamlet "done with scenes".[170]
7. ^ Letter to Sir William Young, 10 January 1773, quoted by Uglow.[173]
8. ^ George Bernard Shaw in The Saturday Review on 2 October 1897.[184]
9. ^ Sarah Bernhardt, in a letter to the London Daily Telegraph.[187]
10. ^ For more on this production, see the MAT production of Hamlet article. Craig and Stanislavski began planning the production in 1908 but, due to a serious illness of Stanislavski's, it was delayed until December 1911.[193]
11. ^ On Craig's relationship to Symbolism, Russian symbolism, and its principles of monodrama in particular, see Taxidou;[195] on Craig's staging proposals, see Innes;[196] on the centrality of the protagonist and his mirroring of the 'authorial self', see Taxidou[197] and Innes.[196]
12. ^ A brightly lit, golden pyramid descended from Claudius's throne, representing the feudal hierarchy, giving the illusion of a single, unified mass of bodies. In the dark, shadowy foreground, separated by a gauze, Hamlet lay, as if dreaming. On Claudius's exit-line the figures remained but the gauze was loosened, so that they appeared to melt away as if Hamlet's thoughts had turned elsewhere. For this effect, the scene received an ovation, which was unheard of at the MAT.[199]

References

All references to Hamlet, unless otherwise specified, are taken from the Arden Shakespeare Q2.[53] Under their referencing system, 3.1.55 means act 3, scene 1, line 55. References to the First Quarto and First Folio are marked Hamlet Q1 and Hamlet F1, respectively, and are taken from the Arden Shakespeare Hamlet: the texts of 1603 and 1623.[54] Their referencing system for Q1 has no act breaks, so 7.115 means scene 7, line 115.
