Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,0, University of Vechta, language: English, abstract: William Shakespeare s Hamlet is of great cultural significance. It was published around 1600/1601, marking the transition from the 16th to the 17th century. It reflects upon spiritual and cultural conflicts of the Elizabethan period more intensively than any other literary work. It includes a variety of philosophical, theological, political, literary and general references. With Hamlet, a new form of interiority is born, the sense of being inside a character s psyche and following it s twists and turns. This interiority is predominantly shown to the audience by the use of soliloquies. Shakespeare s lifework includes a great variety of soliloquies. Hamlet is commonly associated with one phrase: to be or not to be . In this work, I am going to give an overview of Hamlet s soliloquies, concentrating on to be or not to be . Before that, I am going to briefly explain the difference between soliloquy and monologue.
