Theatre imagery has become almost an aphorism, has its occurrence been traced out even in plays belonging to the pre - Shakespearean era. The content for feigned madness has ancient roots. In the renaissance, the feigned madness was more than really the stuff of comic duplicity or confusion. The theatre imagery in Shakespeare's Hamlet is a kind of perceptual lens through which we may observe and analyze the conduct of the character and their tragic predicaments. Hamlet is often described as tragedy dominated by the idea of the plays. Feigned madness becomes a powerful metaphor attached to the theatre imagery. "To be or not to be" begins one of the most famous soliloquies of all time by an author William Shakespeare in his play, Hamlet. There are several different motifs that are relayed within Hamlet's story. These motifs include death, obsession and betrayal all of which contribute to reassure Hamlet's madness. In every motif, the audience can state on a universal level both back in the day and in present times as death. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
