Hello Readers!
Welcome to my blog,
This task Culture studies in practice: Hamlet and To His Coy Mistress given by Dr. Dilip Barad sir head of Department of English.
1) If these two characters were marginalized in Hamlet, they are even more so in Stoppard's handling. If Shakespeare marginalized the powerless in his own version of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, Stoppard has marginalized us all in an era when - in the eyes of some-all of us are caught up in forces beyond our control
Let us now approach Shakespeare's Hamlet with a view to seeing power in its cultural context.
Shortly after the play within the play, Claudius is talking privately with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, Hamlet's fellow students from Wittenberg. In response to Claudius's plan to send Hamlet to England, Rosencrantz delivers a speech that-if read out of context- is both an excellent set of metaphors and a summation of the Elizabethan concept of the role and power of kingship.
