What are the differences between traditional readings of Hamlet and
those produced by modern criticism? What sort of questions does
structuralist or feminist criticism raise? What issues are
foregrounded by contemporary critics and how do these challenge our
understanding of the play? This new collection on Hamlet brings
together three traditional essays on the play and sets them
alongside nine pieces of modern criticism that reflect the way in
which contemporary discussion of Shakespeare is now heavily
indebted to the ideas of structuralism, feminism, deconstruction,
Marxism and new historicism. Complete with Introduction and a guide
to Further Reading, the volume offers students a clear account of
how the exciting developments in modern literary criticism and
theory have influenced the current debate about Hamlet.
