Hamlet's combination of violence and introspection is unusual among Shakespeare's tragedies. It is also full of curious riddles and fascinating paradoxes, making it one of his most widely discussed plays. Professor Hibbard's illuminating and original introduction explains the process by which variant texts were fused in the eighteenth century to create the most commonly used text of today. Drawing on both critical and theatrical history, he shows how this gusion makes Hamlet seem a much more 'problematic' play than it was when it originally appeared in the First Folio of 1623. The Oxford Shakespeare edition presents a radically new text, based on that First Folio, which printed Shakespeare's own revision of an earlier version. The result is a 'theatrical' and highly practical edition for students and actors alike.

##Perhaps the most intriguing protagonist in theatrical plays and literature. Hamlet’s existential crises still resonate with modern readers nowadays. To be or not to be? Or how to be? How can we come to terms with the fact that maybe this life is not worthy of living and yet continue to live, and remain as integral and brave as ever

注釋贊;既可看作是情感淋灕虯結扣人心弦的一齣戲,也能看作是大背景下個人意識與靈魂在冉冉升起,有時候兩種感覺交織,更神會其深。這樣在暴烈或細微的情緒間來去,詞句卻又毫不含糊拖遝地精確,真有韆鈞的筆力。最後一幕劈裏啪啦的節奏竟然還想到瞭《雷雨》,都可嘆
