Book Description
Excerpt from The Mystery of Hamlet: An Attempt to Solve an Old Problem As among the myriads who since the days Of Homer, have attempted to crystallize in human words the ever varying tales of human life and love, one stands out pre eminent and incomparable, so among his works there rises one, the undisputed crown of all, with an irresistible fasci nation, attracting even those to whom the language in which it was written is an unknown tongue. With an incredible plot, and a hero who, weak and vacillating, continually does those things which he ought not to do and leaves undone those things which he ought to have done, there is yet revealed a depth Of human feel ing, and a knowledge of the inmost springs that move the puppets whom we call mankind, before which humanity bows. With other writers their characters are frequently but embodied qualities, moved by one emotion. The heroine is the embodiment of love, and lives but to love, alone.

Book Description
Excerpt from Irving as Hamlet Mystery is, no doubt, one of Hamlet's greatest charms, but the play has a mystery as potent for the vulgar as that which fascinates the educated and thinking. Moreover, its mystery is never suffered to be dull or to override the dramatic interest. And while by its supernatural element it awes all who con template the passage of its incidents, by its homely and simple human nature it stimulates the mind to pierce whatever in it is hard of comprehension. Here, if anywhere, is a great stage play, in which the emotions and bewilderments of gentle and simple may sympathetically commingle. Even the excisions of the common acting versions, though some of the passages are material and others suppress certain subtle but important points, have probably tended to define, and to truly define, the conception which here and there the poet too exuberantly and ramblingly pursued. And if that conception owes something to the pruning 'of the stage manager, how much does it owe to the study and enthusiasm of great actors! Actual performance is magically enlightening, and the recent success of Henry Irving shows that original reflection is still marvellously fruitful. One may be able to quote Goethe and Hazlitt - one may have little pet theories of Hamlet comfortably settled and docketed in one's mind; but after all, the true interpreter is the actor in whom we see Hamlet live.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Human Mystery in Hamlet: An Attempt to Say an Unsaid Word; With Suggestive Parallelisms It would seem to be the duty of one who proposes to discuss the theme of "Hamlet" to begin with an apology. Every one who rises to speak in a debate which has continued for over one hundred years ought humbly to crave the indulgence of his audience and preface his remarks with a declaration of his willingness to vote in favor of a motion for the previous question. This I do. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Shakespeare's "Hamlet" The theory of Hamlet, which I state in the second chapter of this book, was first suggested to me by a performance of the play which Mr. William Poel gave some years before the war in the Little Theatre. It left out a good deal of the play and was imperfect in execution; but it seemed to me right in conception, and suddenly I understood Hamlet, or thought I did, and saw that it was not a puzzle but a masterpiece. I then tried to explain my understanding in an analysis of the play, but did not publish it because, I thought, enough and more than enough had been written about Hamlet. I am provoked to publish it now, after rewriting it, by the theories of Mr. J. M. Robertson and Mr. T. S. Eliot, with which I deal in my first chapter and which imply, or assert, that Hamlet is not a master piece at all, but an accident or a failure.
