Hamlet: Language and Writing by Dympna Callaghan

This lively and informative guide reveals Hamlet as marking a turning point in Shakespeare's use of language and dramatic form as well as addressing the key problem at the play's core: Hamlet's inaction. It also looks at recent critical approaches to the play and its theatre history, including the recent David Tennant / RSC Hamlet on both stage and TV screen.
Dympna Callaghan is William Saffire Professor of Modern Letters, Syracuse University, USA.
