Theatre in Hamlet Notes
Theatre in Hamlet:
Consider the line,
"holds a seat in this distracted globe" (1.5.91 95-97)
Here globe could refer to:
Hamlet’s mind
The world
Globe theatre
- antic-disposition
his feigned temperament of the fool and madman, is an objective correlative for the condition of his country and rile
- globe
of hamlet the play is deliberately and insistently paralleled to the mind or globe of hamlet the man
- the distracted globe
is also the mysterious world of the theatre, in which we sit as spectators
- theatrical or pictorial illusion, the plays and fictions of Hamlet nest inside one another, until we are no longer sure where to place the boundaries of reality and illusion
- Hamlet the play has itself become a mirror up to nature, like the glass of fashion and the mound of form
that was Hamlet the prince
- in suggesting that these three worlds – the world of Hamlet’s mind and imagination; the physical, political and historical
world of Denmark; and the world of dramatic fiction and play – are parallel to and superimposed upon one another, the play is about the whole question of boundaries, thresholds and liminality or border crossing: boundary disputes between Norway and Denmark, boundaries between youth and age, between reality and imagination, between audience and actor, but most importantly the most inexorable boundary possible would seem to be that between life and death.
- Metatheatre as befits a play about the purpose of playing
in the widest sense, Hamlet provides an excellent guide to the use of the early modern stage, and to the thematic interchange-ability of stage and world.
