Hamlet relates to Humanism + The Simpsons

December 15th, 2008 by Fozia

The link which I found is a short essay on different essays of the delay that Hamlet took in murdering his uncle Claudius. It talks about why hamlet had a conflict with his mind, and how that relates to humanism. It talks about how the problems which hamlet face are similar to the problems we face in our daily lives, and how a state of mind, or perspective can have a different outcome on a situation. The link states how the problem that we face in our daily lives is a problem of identity, which will help us understand the conflict with Hamlet and his mind, especially since we have already discussed about identity when we were discussing In the Skin of a Lion by Michael Ondaatje. Since it relates to humanism it is even better because not only will this help us with our test on Tuesday it will help us with our ISU assignment as well (it also helps confused readers like me to understand what’s actually going on).

You have to sign up to read the full essay, but it is available on the following website, I just could not find the author for it so I did not understand how I should cite it:

Also I thought this would be interesting this is The Simpsons version of Hamlet:
