Hamlet and Oedipus by Ernest Jones
A classic study in the psychoanalysis of literature, Hamlet and Oedipus investigates Hamlet's mind as it relates to the general psychological conditions foreshadowed in the Oedipus legend. Dr. Jones gives a comprehensive view of the Hamlet literature and shows how the explanation of Hamlet's mysterious inhibitions lies in his unconscious conflicts. The Hamlet theme is itself an old one, and there is a full discussion of the place of the saga in the complex mythological group to which it belongs.Mervyn Jones is the author of John and Mary, A Survivor, Nobody's Fault, and Two Ladies and Their Man, among other books. Chances, his autobiography, was published in 1987. He has worked as an assistant editor for the London Weekly Tribune and the New Statesman, as well as being the theater critic for the Tribune for eight years.
