PLN for Hamlet

http://www.ice.cam.ac.uk/component/courses/?view=course&cid=3688

This page made the cut because it made me consider Hamlet as a hero. I didn't think or see him as a hero till I saw this page and thought about it. It brought a new side to Hamlet that hadn't got to me yet. It supplied strengths and flaws in Hamlet that qualify him as a hero, and disqualify him as one.

This page made the cut because it took every scene and act, and summed up the main points of each one. If you happen to forget anything about a certain scene, or a key point, or a characters name, this is a great  resource. If you happened to not want to deal with the whole Shakespeare experience and just want to hit the main idea, here it is. It is also off blogger with closed the deal.

This link is not to a university site or anything, but it is to an online discussion between people online. It is exactly what we are trying to do, open source learning. This link brings you to the discussion, that started by one question, and grew into more. You can comment and join the discussion too if you wish and have an enotes account I believe.

This is a link to a college students essay on Hamlet. This gives me an opportunity to see a colleges students view on an aspect Of Hamlet that you may not have considered. I have read some of these already and I am already contemplating Hamlets tragic flaw. If you have any feelings please comment to this post. :)

    I too chose this as one of my sources, pretty interesting read of Hamlet in a collegian essay format.

  2. The websites that you found for Hamlet really helped me, so thanks! It would be easier though if you linked the websites so that lazy people, like me, wouldn't have to keep copying and pasting.
