My Featured Novel

Hamlet by William Shakespeare


I. About the Novel


In Hamlet Shakespeare weaves the dominant motif of disease into every scene to illustrate the corrupt state of Denmark and Hamlet's all-consuming pessimism. Images of ulcers, pleurisy, full body pustules, apoplexy, and madness parallel the sins of drunkenness, espionage, war, adultery, and murder, to reinforce the central idea that Denmark is dying. To Hamlet the very air he breathes is "a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours." Hamlet himself is a victim of a deep melancholy that results in fits of mania, and, until very late in the drama, he rots with a diseased will, unable to take the necessary action to revenge his father and save his country.

IV. My Reaction


A. Reaction Point -Fatal flaw (心の弱さ)
  • Fatal flaw is weak point of heart.  
  • I'll follow you to heaven soon.I'm dead ,Horatio.But you still live.
  • The reason he died for attempting suicide for conviction him.But I think he escaped from commit a crime by suicide. And Hamlet made Horatio that is hamlet's friend live and told about hamlet, Hamlet makes himself hero.I think that Horatio will talk Hamlet such as hero.This interpretation is weak point of  his heart.

B. Reaction Point - Irony (予期しないねじれやコントラスト)
  • Irony means you caught bad situation even if you had a lot of expectations.
  • Opherlia: He took me by the wrist and looked at me strengerly for a long time.Then,without a word out of the room,looking at me over his shoulder. Polonius: This seems to be the madness of love.Have you been unkind to him since I last saw you? Ophelia:I believed you. Hamlet: you were wrong to believe me. I didn't love you. Ophelia; then I was wrong.Hamlet:Give your life to god.You musn't mix with men or be the mother of their children. Men lie. Believe none of us.Give your life to God and work for the Church. 
  • Reading their words,we understood that he did't trace of him that they know.


C. Reaction Point - denouement (ストーリーやプロットの結末)
  • Denouement means epilogue of the story.
  • Fortinbras: What happened?Oh,proud Death,why have you taken so many princes at the same to their graves?Messenger: I have come from England too late with our news.The king's request was answered -Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead. But who will thank us now?Horatio:Not him.He never gave the orders for their death.But now you are here from your Polish wars,I will tell you a sad story of broken dreams, wicked murder and accidental death.This is how it ends.Fortinbras: Four officers will carry Hamlet's body away. this country has lost a great man and a wonderful future king.Soldier's music will play for him as he travels to the next world.Take away the bodies.This room looks like a field of war.Go,tell the soldiers to shoot their guns.
  • Foritnbras enterd ,I think that he will invade to revenge for him and this novel denouement is bad end,But he buried Hamlet and others character politely, I was surprised st his action. And I think by enter Fortinbras ,This novel denouement is not bad end. That is truly give a helping hand to his enemy in distress.

D. My General Opinion
I'm sorry for Hamlet. But I'm sorry for many others character too. the ghost made Hamlet crazy person, however ghost was killed by brother. Ophelia was made crazy person by the word Hamlet said, and sang strange song,and drowned. Claudius was drunk wine that was laced and died by Hamlet.Gertrude was drunk wine that was laced poison and died by Claudius. I think that this novel tell us somebody have an unfortunate experience, In addition somebody have an similar unfortunate experience.Ophelia and Hamlet are case in point.

My Poetry Page

My mistress' Eyes Are Nothing Like the Sun

I. About the Poem


My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red than her lips' red;
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damasked, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;
I grant I never saw a goddess go;
My mistress when she walks treads on the ground.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false compare.

In Shakespeare's age, girlfriend was compared to the sun and beautiful flower heavily. Shakespeare have managed to take advantage of it to admire her beauty. However, Shakespeare said all natural beauty was no match for her beauty. That's why reader was assumed that this lady is not so beautiful.When his death, he said that his girl friend was far from nature but was no match for living lady  and evaded reader's prejudice.

III. My Reaction

A. Reaction Point - Simile(のように)
  • This poem is full of similes. In this poem ,simile was used that comparison of beauty with natural thing.
  • 「My mistress 's eyes are nothing like the sun;」
  • Shakespeare uses this word, and proof that His girl friend is ordinary people.
B. Reaction Point -Irony(皮肉)
  • In this poem,Irony is ordinary lady was compared to natural thing.
  • 「My mistress's eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips'red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damask'd, red and white, but no such roses see I in her cheeks;and in some perfumes  is there more delight than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know that music bath a far more pleasing sound;I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress,when she walks, treads on the ground;」  
  • I think Shakespeare dare to write this sarcasm ,He is trying to get reader's attention. This is just a my private opinion, Shakespeare used many similes, and then proof His girl friend is not better than nature in beauty. So I thought that this poem could be made bitter and ironical remarks.

C. Reaction Point - Tone(態度)
  • Tone means the motion of the heart to a something. In this poem , We understand that Shakespeare has a good impression of Shakespeare 's girl friend .
  • 「And yet,by heaven, I think my love as rare as any she belied with false compare. 」
  • Reading this poem,We think that Shakespeare loved her even if she has no feature and ability.  

D. My General Opinion

I wondered why Shakespeare praised his girl friend .I think that poet tend to write overdone about special talent  .but Shakespeare broke up my fixed idea.  His girl was compared various thing but his girl friend is not better than any thing in the end.  I think That is the merit of this poem.Poet dose not always like special talent.poet sometimes likes Ordinary person.Shakespeare tells us that you don't sell your self when you think I'm ordinary person.
