The figure of Hamlet haunts our culture like the Ghost haunts him.
Arguably, no literary work, not even the Bible, is more familiar to
us than Shakespeare's "Hamlet." Everyone knows at least six words
from the play; often people know many more. Yet the
play--Shakespeare's longest--is more than "passing strange" and
becomes deeply unfamiliar when considered closely. Reading Hamlet
alongside other writers, philosophers, and psychoanalysts--Carl
Schmitt, Walter Benjamin, Freud, Lacan, Nietzsche, Melville, and
Joyce--Simon Critchley and Jamieson Webster consider the political
context and stakes of Shakespeare's play, its relation to religion,
the movement of desire, and the incapacity to love.
