This essay is focuses in comparing the Shakespeare’s texts (First quarto, second quarto and Folio) and Saxo Grammaticus and discuss the similarities and differences between those texts. Hamlet is a tragedy of the English playwright William Shakespeare. He probably based Hamlet on the legend of Amleth (Saxo quarto) but in this essay I will talk about that next. We do not know exactly the year in which this work was written. Hamlet is the longest of Shakespeare’s plays, it is for many people the…

as well as blend together are: quarto 1 (bad quarto), quarto 2 (good quarto), and the first folio (F). Quarto one is often not incorporated as much due to it being having the consistencies of a “rough draft”, so to speak. The first quarto “is much shorter, some 2,200 lines, just over half of the second Quarto, the longest textual version” (Tronch-Perez 16). As for the origin, Albert B. Weiner famously argues in Hamlet: The First Quarto, 1603, that the first quarto was written to be…

On the Great River Shakespeare Festival website, it reads, “Teenagers make bad choices. It was true in Verona in the 1400s; it is true today. For more than 400 hundred years we’ve been telling this story, and we don’t appear to have any desire to stop.” Romeo and Juliet is set in Verona, where there is a violent feud between the Montague and Capulet families. In the prologue, the Chorus foreshadows the plot of the play. (“Two households, both alike in dignity…What here shall miss, our toil…

An article by Professor Mahood titled Shakespeare 's Wordplay, goes over the history of these bad quartos, which were “memorial reconstructions of the play for provincial performance by a reduced company, or the botched text reproduced by a single actor for unauthorized publication.” Romeo and Juliet is even considered one of these. Mahood suggests that one of the ways a bad quarto can be distinguished, is from it’s less…

name of some of the main characters. Shakespeare had a history of taking old plays and re-writing it and improving it in the process so they believed that Hamlet was not his original idea, he had 3 versions of Hamlet, the first is First Quarto, the Second Quarto, and the last one is First Folio. It is assumed that Shakespeare took pieces from the first three version to write his own in a much darker…

The Korean-American War The Korean American War was one of the well known wars from the past. It was a war that was trying to be prevented, but when war is coming you can 't prevent it you can just get ready for it. It was a nice little invasion until America jumped in to help defend what we now call South Korea. This small battle between the North and the South of Korea started little, but when an additional country jumps in you can 't do much but call this war. The Korean War started when…

central relationships, it’s important to note that, in this tragedy, Shakespeare included a parallel plot: the story of Edgar, ‘sonne and heire to the Earle of Gloster, and his sullen and assumed humor of Tom of Bedlam’ (from the title page of the 1608 quarto of King Lear, quoted in Shapiro, 2015).
