In my 3rd year in college, I was assigned to discuss in the class one of William Shakespeare's plays and I chose Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. It was in our English&American Literature class with Mr. D.A. Aragon. :)
The 1st part of the presentation is, of course, a short introduction of the playwright. (this is a super-duper late upload. haha)
The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling, often known simply as Tom Jones, is a comic novel by the English playwright and novelist Henry Fielding. The novel is both a Bildungsroman and a picaresque novel.

Introduction:
Overwhelmed by political intrigue, confronted by a world adversarial to moral sensibilities,
the play dramatizes the revenge
Prince Hamlet
is instructed to enact on.
2.
Characterization
Claudius
is
a shrewd and capable politician and administrator, he is courageous and self-confident, but he is tainted by mortal sin.
Gertrude
is
Hamlet’s mother. She is warmhearted but weak and shows deep affection for Hamlet and tenderness for Ophelia
.
Hamlet
- Hamlet is the prince of Denmark.
Shrouded in his inky cloak, Hamlet is a man of radical contradictions -- he is ferocious, reckless, and uncivil, yet tender cautious, courteous and
determined to avenge his father's death.
Polonius
is the King's advisor
and an affectionate but meddlesome father to Laertes and Ophelia, and tries to control their lives. He is garrulous and self-important as well
.
Laertes
is in many ways a foil to Hamlet. He also hungers for revenge for a slain father
.
Ophelia
is a
sweet, docile girl; she is easily dominated by her father, Polonius.
Ophelia is also the beloved of Hamlet.
Horatio is Hamlet's close friend and
presented as a studious, skeptical young man, perhaps more serious and less ingenious than hamlet.
Fortinbras
- Fortinbras is the Norwegian prince who returns to Denmark to revenge his father.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

18. Claudius keeps his friends close and his
enemies closer
“But to persever/
In obstinate condolement is a course/
Of impious stubbornness. ‘Tis unmanly grief.”
19. “O, that this too too sullied flesh would
melt…”
20. Hamlet admits the ghost might be the devil
and not his father’s ghost:
“If it assume my noble father’s person, / I’ll
speak to it, though hell itself should gape/
And bid me hold my peace.”
21. Ophelia the “good daughter” –or is she?
Polonius talks about Ophelia like she’s
property. Uses language of business.
“brokers” “investments” “tender”
22. Hamlet’s commentary on Claudius’s partying
“[i]t is a custom/more honoured in the breach
than the observance.”
Hamlet isn’t afraid to die because he doesn’t
“set [his] life in a pin’s fee” and his soul is
immortal.
23. Foreshadowing?
Horatio:What if it …
deprive your
sovereignty of
reason/ And draw
you into madness?
Marcellus:
Something is rotten
in the state of
Denmark
24. The ghost claims Claudius seduced Gertrude and
echoes Hamlet’s claim that Claudius is vastly
inferior to Old Hamlet.
Imagery of disease and corruption powerful:
And in the porches of my ears did pour
The leperous distilment,…
And with a sudden vigour doth possed
And curd, like eager droppings into milk,
The thin and wholesome blood.
Body of King=The State of Denmark
Editor's Notes
Norse Legend composed by Saxo Grammaticus in Latin around 1200. Essentially the same plot.
See your handout for this
We learn from the nervous guards of preparations for war and nightly visits by a ghost of the previous king. Horatio, a scholar, has been asked by the guards to come watch with them. The ghost appears but won’t speak to them. They decide to tell Hamlet what they’ve seen.
Claudius holds court. Talks about his recent marriage and the death of his brother as well as activities of Fortinbras. Solidifies his claim to the throne. Lets Laertes go to Paris, but doesn’t let Hamlet go to Wittenburg. Hamlet whines about how life sucks. Horatio and the two soldiers tell Hamlet about the ghost.
Oxymorons: Claudius can rejoice and mourn at the same time: acknowledges his brother’s death and says that everyone has gone along with the wedding. Sets himself up to look like a nice guy: agrees to let Laertes go back to Paris. But isolates Hamlet
Claudius tells Hamlet he’s unmanly and impious for mourning so long. Won’t let him go back to Wittenburg. Hamlet’s concerned with appearance vs realitiy, Gertrude asks him why he “seems” to be mourning so much. Hamlet says “I know not ‘seems’”
Hamlet wants to die. Won’t kill himself because God has “fixed/His canon’gainst self-slaughter.” The world is an unweeded garden. His father was awesome and Gertrude seemed destroyed when he died “Like Niobe, all tears” but in less than two months, she married Claudius “a beast that wants discourse of reason/Would have mourned longer.”
Laertes, before leaving for France has advice to give to Ophelia: don’t sleep with Hamlet. He’s just messing with you. Don’t lose your “chaste treasure”. Ophelia: yeah, well don’t lose yours either, hypocrite. Polonius: You’re a stupid baby who can’t think for herself. Hamlet may say he loves you but that’s what all young men do. He’s not free to marry you like he would be if he weren’t a prince but he’s happy to have sex with you and you’ll “tender me a fool”. Never talk to him in private again.
Hamlet’s waiting on the battlement with Horatio and Marcellus. Ghost appears and beckons Hamlet to go with him. They try to stop him citing common fear that spirits were sent by the devil to tempt good men to commit suicide.
Hamelt learns from the ghost that Claudius murdered his father. Hamlet’s father is suffering in purgatory. Tells Hamlet to take revenge but leave his mother alone. Hamlet swears to do this. Swears Marcellus and Horatio to secrecy and not to tell anyone that he’s not actually crazy.
