This is a collection of short essays and brief “thoughts” on Shakespeare’s play, Hamlet. It includes analyses of the plot and characters as seen through more modern eyes than most essays. These may be of use to students struggling to find something original among all the discussions of the play. Topics in the eleven “thoughts” include an inquest into why Hamlet killed Claudius, as well as original thinking on “The Great Poland Invasion Scam,” and “In Praise of Claudius,” among others. The essays may be read in conjunction with Lenny Everson’s novel, Hamlet: The Comedy, also available on Smashwords.
