"A truly great book should be read in youth, again in maturity and once more in old age, as a fine building should be seen by morning light, at noon and by moonlight."

| |  | | | In Brief
This edition of Hamlet includes background information on the play, commentary on selected lines, and notes regarding Quarto and Folio versions of the text. Bibliography.
| | | | From The Publisher
This edition of Shakespeare's classic play presents the 1974 text edited by G. Blakemore Evans from The Riverside Shakespeare (complete with footnotes, glosses, and textual notes) along with five critical essays - newly commissioned or revised for a student audience - that read Hamlet from five contemporary critical perspectives. Each critical essay is accompanied by a succinct introduction to the history, principles, and practice of the critical perspective, and a bibliography that promotes further exploration of that approach. The text and essays are further complemented by an introduction providing biographical and historical contexts to Shakespeare and Hamlet, a survey of critical responses to the play since its initial publication, and a glossary of critical and theoretical terms.
| | | | Annotation
His father is dead. Has his mother married the killer? A ghost cries out for vengeance, but has the Prince who hears the cry gone mad? A kingdom hangs in the balance, but who can be trusted? Family, politics, blood lust, betrayal, mystery, friendship and love--each plays a role in Shakespeare's great tragedy, Hamlet. (Digest)

"Knowing I lov'd my books, he furnish'd me
From mine own library with volumes
that I prize above my dukedom."
"And this our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything."
"Our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything."
"Some men never seem to grow old. Always active in thought, always ready to adopt new ideas, they are never chargeable with foggyism. Satisfied, yet ever dissatisfied, settled, yet ever unsettled, they always enjoy the best of what is, are the first to find the best of what will be."
"Speak to me as to thy thinkings,
As thou dost ruminate, and give thy worst of thoughts
The worst of words."
"My words fly up, my thoughts remain below:
Words without thoughts never to heaven go."
"I understand a fury in your words,
But not the words."
"It is a kind of good deed to say well; and yet words are not deeds."
"To be a well-flavored man is the gift of fortune, but to write or read comes by nature."
