"Something is rotten in the state of Denmark."
--From Hamlet (I, iv, 90) The recently deceased King Hamlet of Denmark has appeared as a ghost to the guards that keep watch over the castle at Elsinore and although they beckon it to speak to them, it refuses and disappears as dawn breaks. The next night,the ghost appears and beckons Hamlet away from the others, as if to speak in private. Horatio and the other officers view this as dangerous and warn Hamlet not to go alone, a warning he refuses to obey. They fear for his life and sanity, and are suspicious of the ghost, as it may be from heaven or from hell. As Hamlet goes off with the ghost of his father, Marcellus speaks the famous line, which is prophetic of the evil lurking in the person of the new King. |
