Hamlet
Find me an involved Shakespearean student that does not find interest in Hamlet, and I will find you a member of Congress who does not like money. It is as simple as that. Just thinking about the Bard's tale of sadness and revenge makes the hairs on the nape of my neck stand up and tingle. Who out there in the modern world is not familiar with the ever-so-famous line "to be, or not to be?" I should hope that every high school student is somewhat knowledgeable as to where that originated from. If not, it indicates a failure on Hamlet. One word that inspires a million emotions and feelings in anyone that hears it uttered. What English student isn't familiar with this classic tale of a prince gone mad? So many different aspects of today's society can be picked out of this story. Revenge, betrayal, sorrow, insanity, lus
The themes present in the story are easily understandable, as well as related to. He had such an amazing grasp of the language that the lines he used are still practiced and rehearsed even today. I realize that all of his works aren't original, but the way he presents them is just breathtaking. One man, a single person wrote this story. That is, if she were presentable enough. The aspect of revenge is most evident in the story, seemingly so because two young men are both on the race to avenge the death of their father. We ourselves cannot come to avenge it ourselves, so the story serves as a sort of a substitute where we can relieve our tensions through the written word. I myself am in love with Shakespeare's works. His plays are put on worldwide and quite frequently, at that. I believe that if a woman approached me, speaking like Ophelia does, I would fall head over heels for her. I hold the Bard in such high regard that I find myself constantly researching information about him and his works. It is a sickness that I hope there is no cure for. It is alarming how the "Bard Bug" has bitten me.
