HAMLET CRITICS
GHOST
John Wilson - “The ghost is the linchpin of the play
CLAUDIUS
Wilson Knight - “Claudius shows every sign of being an excellent diplomat and King”
Arnold - “Claudius’ soliloquy gives the impression of rhetorical pageantry rather that sincere
contrition”
Richard D Altick - “The cunning and lecherousness of Claudius’ evil has corrupted the whole
kingdom of Denmark”
OPHELIA
Edwards - “We can imagine Hamlets story without Ophelia, but Ophelia literally has no story
without Hamlet”
Showalter - “Ophelia is deprived of thought, sexuality and language”
Rogers - “In Shakespears society, the ideal female is cherished for her youth, beauty and purity”
Charney - “Through madness, Ophelia suddenly makes a forceful assertion of her being”
Showalter - “Hamlets madness is associated with intellectual and imaginative genius but
Ophelias affliction is erotomania, of love madness”
POLONIUS
Smith - “Polonis seems to love his children; he seems to have the welfare of the kingdom in mind
...
It is rather and act of injustice on behalf of justice”
Wilson Knight - “Hamlet is an element of evil in the state of Denmark”
Coleridge - “Hamlet is obliged to act on the spur of the moment”
Lee - “Hamlet talks more than any other character in Shakespeare”
Showalter - “Hamlets madness is associated with intellectual and imaginative genius but
Ophelias affliction is erotomania, of love madness”
Mack - “In the final act, Hamlet accepts his world and we discover a different man”
LAERTES
Devlin - “Laertes is clearly less experienced in dishonour than Claudius”
