Critical Analysis of William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet, Prince of Denmark”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page critical analysis of William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet, Prince of Denmark”. William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet, Prince of Denmark” (1601) is considered one of his most popular, psychologically driven and dark tragedies. An analysis of the elements within the play show that Hamlet as the central and pivotal character reveals his inner most thoughts as he contemplates his situation, the events and purposes of those around him and the true metaphysical meaning of his life and the lives of others. The play is basically formatted as a “revenge tragedy” but readers and audiences soon come to realize that Shakespeare upon writing this play provided psychological and philosophical questions which remain consistently important to this day. Through themes of revenge, madness, incest, love, corruption and power, Shakespeare’s “Hamlet” becomes more than a play but becomes an examination of mankind and his will to act.

Criticisms and Comments on William Shakespeare’s “Cymbeline”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the criticisms and studies of William Shakespeare’s “Cymbeline”. Critics and researchers have been divided over the centuries as to the origins and historical inconsistencies of William Shakespeare’s “Cymbeline”. Believed to have been written late in Shakespeare’s career, the play is one of the lesser know plays and until recently rarely performed. Originally, critics believed the play to be unpopular because of the inconsistent mixture of times and locations; however, since this can be said to be the case of several other plays of Shakespeare, the unpopularity of the play may be more of an aspect of the “Shakespeare industry” which over the years has promoted several of his plays over others. Due to some recently successful performances of Cymbeline, critics, directors and audiences of today seem to enjoy the open aspects of the play which allow for imaginative direction, costuming and fantasy elements. Just a little over a decade ago however, audiences and critics were not so accepting of these aspects of the play and deemed the play confusing and “a mongrel”. Researchers in Shakespearean studies have elaborated on the cartographic and astronomic details used in Cymbeline which are consistent with some of Shakespeare’s other works and seem to provide evidence that not only is this a play of great workmanship but also was probably not a collaboration. Regardless of the controversies which surround the play however, it is likely that because of the recent revival and acceptance of performances of Cymbeline, audiences of the next generation will be more familiar with the work than audiences of today.

Deception in Hamlet & Othello
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper that contrasts and compares the use of deception in these two plays. The writer argues that in both plays, characters, specifically Hamlet and Iago, engage in deceptive actions that are intended to manipulate others. However, the motivations behind the deception in each instances are totally different. Hamlet is tortured about whether revenge against his uncle is the correct action, that is, action that is justified and noble. Iago, on the other hand, is the epitome of evil and positively revels in his duplicity. Nevertheless, certain parallels can be drawn between the Iago and the prince of Denmark. Both Iago and Hamlet use manipulate language in order to deceive, and, also, they are both motivated, to a certain extent by repulsion at certain sexual liaisons. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Deconstructing Film and Cross-Referencing Shakespeare’s “Hamlet" and “Richard the Third”
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the fact
that the unique aspect of the universality of very well-known
works being turned into a cinema application is that the audience
has easy access to the original text and, in fact, may have seen
the story presented in a different context, in a number of
circumstances. They are likely to know the story and are
interested to see how it will be presented in a new format.
Therefore, the ability to cross-reference the original work by
Shakespeare and the modern adaptation serve as a valuable tool in
defining style, impact, and effectiveness of the film adaptation
of one of Shakespeare’s works. No sources listed.
