Critical Responses to  Hamlet

Overview

This third volume of Critical Responses covers the early Victorian years, when Hamlet was acclaimed from Cincinnati to Moscow and from London to Australia. The German contribution, already strong during the preceding generation of Romantics, was in full stride, and is given particular attention here. It was during these years that the triumph of Romanticism over the neo-classical strictures of Voltaire was achieved and Hamlet emerged, not as an irresolute weakling, but as a rational determined hero, restrained from the immediate accomplishment of his revenge simply by a need for certainty.
