Hamlet Travestie, In Three Acts: With Burlesque Annotations, After The Manner Of Dr. Johnson And George Steevens And The Various Commentators (1814) is a satirical play written by John Poole. The play is a parody of William Shakespeare's Hamlet and is divided into three acts. In addition to the play itself, there are also burlesque annotations that are written in the style of Dr. Johnson and George Steevens, as well as other commentators. The annotations provide a humorous commentary on the play and its characters. The play features exaggerated characters and situations, and the language is intentionally absurd and comical. Overall, Hamlet Travestie is a witty and entertaining take on Shakespeare's classic tragedy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
