Description

The Oxford Shakespeare: Hamlet Hamlet is a play that defies easy categorisation, combining elements of violence and introspection in a way that sets it apart from other Shakespearean tragedies. Its complex web of riddles and paradoxes has made it a subject of intense debate and discussion among scholars and theatre practitioners alike. This edition of Hamlet presents a radically new text, based on the original version printed in the First Folio of 1623. Professor Hibbard's introduction provides a detailed exploration of the process by which variant texts were fused to create the most commonly used version of today. With its focus on the theatrical and practical aspects of the play, this edition is ideal for students and actors looking for a highly practical and accurate performance text. The Oxford World's Classics series has a long tradition of making high-quality literature available at an affordable price, and this edition of Hamlet is no exception. With its expert introduction, helpful notes, and up-to-date bibliography, this edition provides a wealth of information to support your study or performance of the play.
