The Tragedy of Hamlet, prince of Denmark, or more simply Hamlet, is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1599 and 1601.The play, set in Denmark, recounts how prince Hamlet exacts revenge on his uncle Claudius, who has murdered Hamlet's father, the King, and then taken the throne and married Gertrude, Hamlet's mother.The play vividly charts the course of real and feigned madness—from overwhelming grief to seething rage—and explores themes of treachery, revenge, in-ce-st, and moral corruption.Despite much literary detective work, the exact year of writing remains in dispute.Three different early versions of the play have survived: these are known as the First Quarto(Q1), the Second Quarto(Q2)and the First Folio(F1).Each has lines, and even scenes, that are missing from the others.Shakespeare probably based Hamlet on the legend of Amleth, preserved by 13th-century chronicler Saxo Grammaticus in his Gesta Danorum and subsequently retold by 16th-century scholar Fran??ois de Belleforest, and a supposedly lost Elizabethan play known today as the Ur-Hamlet.Given the play's dramatic structure and depth of characterization, Hamlet can be analyzed, interpreted and argued about from many perspectives.For example, scholars have debated for centuries about Hamlet's hesitation in killing his uncle.Some see it as a plot device to prolong the action, and others see it as the result of pressure exerted by the complex philosophical and ethical issues that surround cold-blooded murder, calculated revenge and thwarted desire.More recently, psychoanalytic critics have examined Hamlet's unconscious desires, and feminist critics have re-evaluated and rehabilitated the often maligned characters of Ophelia and Gertrude.Hamlet is Shakespeare's longest play and among the most powerful and influential tragedies in the English language.It provides a storyline capable of “seemingly endleretelling and adaptation by others”.During Shakespeae's lifetime, the play was one of his most popular works, and it still ranks high among his most-performed, topping, for example, the Royal Shakespeare Company's list since 1879.It has inspired writers from Goethe and Dickens to Joyce and Murdoch and has been described as “the world's most filmed story after Cinderella”.The title role was almost certainly created for Richard Burbage, the leading tragedian of Shakespeare's time.In the four hundred years since, it has been played by highly acclaimed actors, and sometimes actresses, of each successive age.“ Hamlet ” of Shakespear is a classical representative work.This book certainly does not have the big difference in the superficial plot with the historical fable, spoke or the Danish prince the story which revenged for the father, in which fills the rank smell of blood violence and dies.Just like the dramatis personae Horatio said: “ you may hear to to rape massacre, the unusual repair behavior, the dark center decision, accidental slaughter, borrows the hand murder , as well as falls into suicide result.” Windingly elects the plot, tightly centers on the revenge to launch.Hamlet Wittenberg hurries back the home in a hurry from Germany, is attends his father's funeral, enables him to accept, he not catches up with father's funeral, actually witnessed the mother and the Uncle Claudius' wedding ceremony, this had caused Hamm the Wright suspicion at the heart, added night above meets in the royal palace castle with father's ghost, the ghost sorrow sued, this pile atrocity was Uncle Hamlet the behavior, and wanted him to revenge for the father.To this, he started the difficult revenge course, launched the life and death contest with Claudius.Finally, sent out sword the revenge to Claudius

Hamlet
By TeD
Were one to have the profound hatred, were one to avenge and harm his family who seems too far to harm, he would be either a hero or a monster.Should he fight the unbeatable foe and right the wrong, should he bear with unbearable sorrow, should he ruin himself in twisted enthusiasm, he would be Hamlet.Among all the masterpieces of William Shakespeare, “Hamlet”, undoubtedly is worshipped and as one of the most successful and admired tragedies, while the character Hamlet remains one of the most loved dramatis personas in all-time history of literature.To have read Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet” by the age of 16, I was moved to tears, while having no empathy with his another great one “Tempest”.Presumably when I get 60 or older, I could be wise enough to understand the latter, but find it nothing worthwhile to go over the former one, where lays a romantic story that the only youngsters are addicted to.But it’s a fact that whenever in our lifetime after gaining such experiences as getting through hard times, or, finding a real self, from “Hamlet”, we always find something that we consider as perpetuation, which is worth deep thoughts.This is because it highlights Hamlet’s choices of life, choices made under certain circumstances of history and society, requested by the fate extraordinary to Hamlet himself, but ordinary to mankind.That is, to some extent, his experiences make a similar one to ours and, his destiny is something we’re facing sometime in our own lives.We’re possibly the same.We explore the truth in the dark.We discover facts from the mist.We lose ourselves in determinations.We trespass on which we’re forbid to be, hesitates at love and hatred, and struggle to rebuild system of values and spiritual prop in a world without standards and scales of standards.Hamlet couldn’t have been perfect.He is very much a person motivated by irrational enthusiasm, impetuous enough to kill Polonius only to find it’s a mistake as the victim is not the king.But somehow it is for his poor enthusiasm, his weakness of humanity, that Hamlet touches countless readers, as everyone makes out himself from the ill-fated prince.Hamlet's “revenge” isn't so much simply the killing of Claudius, as it is the purging of all the rottenness in the Danish court.And although it costs him his life, he succeeds.At some time, we all consider how much wrong there is in the world.“Hamlet” gives us a chance to watch an ordinary person consciously choose to say “No!” to the world's wrongness and falsities, and to strike back with power.William Shakespeare held up the mirror to something in us that is precious.I hear Hamlet thinking, “Too many people waste too much effort doing things that are not worthwhile.It's a bad world, and I am far from a perfect human being.We all end up dead in the end.So I am going to do something worthwhile, and do it right.”
I hear him wondering, “What is a man, If his chief good and market of his time.Is but to sleep and feed? A beast, no more.”
I hear him whispering “To be, or not to be, aye, there's the point.To die, to sleep, is that all? Aye, all.”
That makes a hero to me, regardless of his blindness and madness which haunt everyone for a while in his time.Thousands of readers may have thousands of their own Hamlet, but there’s something that stays the same, that Hamlet dares to run, where the brave dare not go.That’s his quest.Think about it.
第三篇:《哈姆雷特》英文读后感
Shakspere(wrong spelling)created Hamlet--a man with wisdom and courage.In order to revenge on his uncle for killing his father, he pretented(spelling mistake)to be mad and suffered a series of misery.On the contrary, we can also say that Hamlet is rude and selfish for he did not think twice before his revenge.if(Capitalize “If” since it is the beginning word of the sentence.)a country has no king, how can a country keep alive(You need a question mark here since it is a question.)So, every thing has two sides, the bright side and adumbral side.Every time we make a decision we have to think twice.Comment:
Be careful with your spelling, grammar, and punctuation.Too many uncessary mistakes.It is good that you looked at both the dark and bright sides of Hamlet.Thats quite objective and convincing.

The Book Report of Hamlet
Have you ever experienced the misfortune which changed your life completely? Imagine that everything around you is changed suddenly and you have to assume the hardly bearable responsibility to defend the justice, what will you do? This is the tough experience of our hero—Hamlet.你是否曾遭遇过颠覆自己整个人生的不幸?试想一下,当你周围的一切突然间彻底改变,而你迫不得已去承担生命中本不该承受之重,倾尽全力去担当维护争议的角色。此刻,你会作何抉择?这便是我们的故事主人公哈姆雷特的悲惨遭遇。
Hamlet, the prince of Denmark, accomplished a great transmutation after experiencing multiple woes.His life had ever been filled with happiness and love.However, everything changed after an unexpected misfortune—His father died suddenly.Hamlet went back home in a hurry from Germany to attend his father’s funeral.Ridiculously, he failed to catch up with his father’s funeral, but witnessed the wedding ceremony of his mother and his uncle Claudius, the new king.Hamlet felt shamed and bitter, he began to know the darkness of the world.It turned worse after Hamlet met his father’s ghost, who told him that his uncle was the murderer and wanted him to revenge for his father.Then, Hamlet’s world turned into complete darkness.He felt hopeless and didn’t trust in anyone.He grew weary of the world, which seemed to him a weeded garden, where all the flowers were chocked up, and nothing but weeds could thrive.“To be or not to be, that’s a question”.(Act III.i.56)
If he chose death, he could cast off the suffering and vexation, but he would be too guilt to face his dead father.If he chose to face the woes, he would have to take responsibility for revenging for his father and saving his country, but it was so heavy that he could hardly undertake.However, Hamlet couldn’t put up with living in darkness, he secretly planned to revenge on his uncle.He pretended to lose his sanity and treated others rudely, including his loving girl, Ophelia.However, Hamlet was a man with contradictory, who always thought many questions.As a result of his hesitation, he lost many chances to kill Claudius.After Hamlet accidentally killed Polonius, father of Ophelia and Laertes, Ophelia became mad and drowned in the river.To revenge for his father and sister, Laertes challenged Hamlet to a duel.It was a plot of Claudius that Laertes poisoned the tip of his sharp blade to kill the prince.Both Hamlet and Laertes were poisoned during the duel.After knowing the plot, Hamlet killed Claudius angrily.This done, our hero collapsed and died in his friend’s arms, just like a flower of Epiphyllum oxypetalum, which had just blossomed, perished together with the darkness.Epiphyllum oxypetalum, this is the Hamlet in my mind.The Epiphyllum oxypetalum is a kind of broad-leaved evergreen bush, famous for its special flowers, which bloom in the darkness, lasting for a single night only.After a lot of suffering and hesitation, he burst into the full bloom, just like the Epiphyllum oxypetalum, which had struggled for a long time, suddenly bloomed in the darkness.The flower, as white as the moonlight, perished together with the darkness.If we look at Hamlet from different angles, we will have all kinds of ideas.In my opinion, as a result of the situation, Hamlet transformed from an innocent child into a brave soldier with wisdom and courage.Meanwhile, Hamlet also had many bad attributes.To some degree, he was a cowardly prince, who always hesitated and lost many chances.Before his father’s death, Hamlet was like a tender shoot in the greenhouse.He hadn’t experienced the tribulation of the life and was influenced a lot by the humanism.As a result, he could just become a giant of thinking and dwarf of action.In other words, Hamlet couldn’t integrate his awareness with his action in reality.He was accustomed to replacing real action with philosophical thinking and questioning himself.It is his biggest problem, the basic reason of his tragedy.However, just because the thinking and hesitation that Hamlet showed when he faced the revenge, morality and love, this book become distinctive and unique.That makes him more realistic, because sometimes readers may have the same feeling in our real life.When he faced the cruel twist of fate, how difficult it is to make a choice!In fact, everyone has a smack of Hamlet.This part reminds me that sometimes I lose chances because of hesitation.The author wants to tell us that we should fight against the fate without useless hesitation when we are faced difficulties in our lives.Shakespeare also wants to tell us a principle of revenge: we shouldn’t harm others, or we’ll pay for it.After closing the cover of the book, I find it leaves me so much to recall and think.In a word, Hamlet is the finest of all the plays in the English revenge tradition, which has influenced generations of readers.(Epiphyllum oxypetalum 昙花)

第五篇:hamlet 哈姆雷特 读后感 英文
‗To be, or not to be‘ is the object of this drama, this sentence reflects the contradiction and struggle of the young prince.After struggling with his own heart, finally, the young hamlet summoned up courage and fight with his evil uncle.Act I, scene i.On a dark winter night outside Ellsinore Castle in Denmark, an officer named Bernardo comes to relieve the watchman Francisco.Shakespeare uses a dark night as the first background to establish the dark tone.It leads people to a dim kingdom.Act I, scene iii.The morning after Horatio and the guardsmen see the ghost;King Claudius gives a speech to his courtiers, explaining his recent marriage to Gertrude, his brother‘s widow and the mother of Prince Hamlet.Having established a dark, ghostly atmosphere in the first scene, Shakespeare devotes the second to the seemingly jovial court of the recently crowned King Claudius.If the area outside the castle is murky with the aura of dread and anxiety, the rooms inside the castle are devoted to an energetic attempt to banish that aura, as the king, the queen, and the courtiers desperately pretend that nothing is out of the ordinary.It is difficult to imagine a more convoluted family dynamic or a more out-of-balance political situation, but Claudius nevertheless preaches an ethic of balance to his courtiers, pledging to sustain and combine the sorrow he feels for the king‘s death and the joy he feels for his wedding in equal parts.Act I, scene IV also continues the development of the motif of the ill health of Denmark.Hamlet views the king‘s carousing as a further sign of the state‘s corruption, commenting that alcohol makes the bad aspects of a person‘s character overwhelm all of his or her good qualities.And the appearance of the ghost is again seen as a sign of Denmark‘s decay, this time by Marcellus, who famously declares, ―Something is rotten in the state of Denmark‖(I.iv.67)
The short scene that begins Act II is divided into two parts, the first of which involves Polonius‘s conversation with Reynaldo about Laertes and the second of which involves Polonius‘s conversation with Ophelia about Hamlet.The scene serves to develop the character of Polonius, who is one of the most intriguing figures in Hamlet.Polonius can be interpreted as either a doddering fool or as a cunning manipulator, and he has been portrayed onstage as both.In this scene, as he carefully instructs Reynaldo in the art of snooping, he seems more the manipulator than the fool, though his obvious love of hearing his own voice leads him into some comical misprisions(―And then, sir, does a this — a does — / what was I about to say? By the mass, I was about to say some / thing.Where did I leave?‖(II.i.49–51]).In the first two scenes of Act III, Hamlet and Claudius both devise traps to catch one another‘s secrets: Claudius spies on Hamlet to discover the true nature of his madness, and Hamlet attempts to ―catch the conscience of the king‖ in the theater(III.i.582).The play-within-a-play tells the story of Gonzago, the Duke of Vienna, and his wife, Baptista, who marries his murdering nephew, Lucianus.Hamlet believes that the play is an opportunity to establish a more reliable basis for Claudius‘s guilt than the claims of the ghost.Since he has no way of knowing whether to believe a member of the spirit world, he tries to determine whether Claudius is guilty by reading his behavior for signs of a psychological state of guilt.In Act III, scene iii, Hamlet finally seems ready to put his desire for revenge into action.He is satisfied that the play has proven his uncle‘s guilt.When Claudius prays, the audience is given real certainty that Claudius murdered his brother: a full, spontaneous confession, even though nobody else hears it.This only heightens our sense that the climax of the play is due to arrive.But Hamlet waits.As we saw in Act IV, scene ii, the murder of Polonius and the subsequent traumatic encounter with
his mother seem to leave Hamlet in a frantic, unstable frame of mind, the mode in which his excitable nature seems very similar to actual madness.He taunts Claudius, toward whom his hostility is now barely disguised, and makes light of Polonius‘s murder with word games.He also pretends to be thrilled at the idea of sailing for England with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.As befits a scene full of anger and dark thoughts, Act IV, scene v brings a repetition of the motif of insanity, this time through the character of Ophelia, who has truly been driven mad by the death of her father.Shakespeare has demonstrated Ophelia‘s chaste dependence on the men in her life;after Polonius‘s sudden death and Hamlet‘s subsequent exile, she finds herself abruptly without any of them.In the final scene, the violence, so long delayed, erupts with dizzying speed.Characters drop one after the other, poisoned, stabbed, and, in the case of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, executed, as the theme of revenge and justice reaches its conclusion in the moment when Hamlet finally kills Claudius.In the moments before the duel, Hamlet seems peaceful, though also quite sad.Throughout this drama, maybe I do not have enough ability to appreciate it absolutely;I learn that people will feel at sea at times, but we must keep up our spirits to struggle and find a correct way to strive.
