Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ...her built-up hope is dashed. She is told that Hamlet has shown no love for Ophelia! And, moreover, he has shown himself more erratic, savagely sarcastic and generally outrageous than ever. Already it is considered necessary for everybody to humour him, and her heart is full of fear, for the ugly murmur "madness" is now about everywhere. She refuses to lend an ear to it; he is griefdistracted, but no more. Her distress over Hamlet's health has of late absorbed her mind to the exclusion of any direct scruples of conscience. The King is her support and her comfort; in her distress she would be utterly lost without him; he is so patient with Hamlet, and with her grief, that she is devotedly appreciative of his love. However, she knows that Hamlet has arranged an entertainment for that evening, and has requested their presence. To her, it seems a good sign that he should busy himself with any pastime, and she doubtless builds more hopes on it. As he has constantly avoided her as well as Claudius since he yielded to her persuasion to remain in Denmark (would that he had not!), the fact that he has requested their presence seems of itself to imply conciliation. Therefore she dons her fairest gown, and looks, as she enters the great hall, more like her former cheerful self than she has done for many a day. As the Court group themselves in readiness for the performance (Act III., scene 2), Gertrude, who has been waiting to meet Hamlet's eye, does so, and ask him sweetly to--"Come hither, my dear Hamlet, sit by me." But that, with the aim he has in view, is impossible! "No, good mother," he replies tersely. Then, turning, he perceives Ophelia, and adds: "Here's metal more attractive!" and, seating himself at...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The True Ophelia: And Other Studies of Shakespeare's Women The actresses who have succeeded in the part have done so sheerly by means of their own delightful personalities. They looked so beautiful, moved so gracefully, spoke in such sweet tones and wept with such pathos. But they would have been exactly the same had they been playing a sympathetic village idiot, weeping over a dead canary! One wonders who was the originator of the traditional nonentity. Some delightful beauty, maybe, whose rendering has seemingly been left unquestioned. It is strange that in the struggle for origin ality no one has ever attempted to play the character as Shakespeare - or Bacon - has created it; with business entirely in keep ing with the text, and in an atmosphere of sequential thought and feeling. If one did attempt it, she was too insignificant to have succeeded in making any impression officially, beyond perhaps gaining the reputation in the company of being a crank.

Book excerpt: The enduring cultural legacy of Shakespeare’s Juliet Capulet — a history "as vital and provocative as the character herself" (Literary Review). Romeo and Juliet may be the greatest love story ever told, but who is Juliet? Demure ingénue? Or dangerous Mediterranean madwoman? From tearstained copies of the First Folio to Civil War-era fanfiction, Shakespeare’s star-crossed heroine has long captured our collective imagination. Juliet is her story, traced across continents through four centuries of history, theatre, and film. As Oxford Shakespeare scholar Sophie Duncan reveals, Juliet’s legacy stretches beyond her literary lifespan into a cultural afterlife ranging from enslaved African girls in the British Caribbean to the real-life Juliets of sectarian violence in Bosnia and Belfast. She argues that our dangerous obsession with the beautiful dead teenager and Juliet’s meteoric rise as a defiant sexual icon have come to define the Western ideal of romance. Wry and inventive, Juliet is a tribute to fiction’s most famous teenage girl who died young, but who lives forever.
