@DShaul3 #Hamlet Thought of a prompt: to describe how Ham really likes when people take action and go against their roles (ordering R and G to die because they were pawns to Claudius), and if Ham takes action by the end.

@Dshaul3 I noticed TC Boyle’s essay about Montecito’s mudslides. Despite the essay next class, I’d like to look at it then

Alas! Alas, it isn’t true. Who canst have performed such a horrible act?

I don’t know how to say this: @JuliusCaesarius1 was murdered today. @OpheliaElsinore13

@hamletljcds @Dshaul3 (especially for Ophelia, who doesn’t have help when she needs it.)
I just wrote a short exchange between the two of them, starting before Gertrude & Claudius see Ophelia and taking place throughout Act IV 2/2

[Francois-Marie Arouet @TrumanFogler]

@hamletljcds @Dshaul3 Horatio and Ophelia don’t have any friends who are mentioned. If they were real people, they would have had offstage relationships, for sure. But reading Hamlet for the first time, I thought their actions came from isolation in the castle 1/2

[Francois-Marie Arouet @TrumanFogler]

@Dshaul3 Can we watch "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" by Tom Stoppard at the end of the "Hamlet" unit?

[Francois-Marie Arouet @TrumanFogler]

@Dshaul3 @hamletljcds Gertrude has responsibility as the queen of the “warlike state”, but the hero doesn’t acknowledge it. To Hamlet, she betrays Hamlet sr. In a soliloquy, [I.ii], he insults her for quickly marrying Claudius. In [I.v], he ignores ghost's request to forgive her.

[Francois-Marie Arouet @TrumanFogler]

@hamletljcds @Dshaul3 It’s not because I was the next king up./ You don’t deserve deserve my mom. It made me mad,/ a wedding while Denmark rots. Hold up,/ a ghost just said it’s you who killed my dad?

[Francois-Marie Arouet @TrumanFogler]

@hamletljcds @Dshaul3 1. Guards get Horatio to see a ghost
2. Claudius is king, Hamlet angry
3. Ophelia, don’t date Hamlet
4. Staying up ghostbusting
5. King talks to his son

@hamletljcds how the sometime king fell #spontaneouskeelingover

@tcboyle Thanks for talking about staws and stuff

[Francois-Marie Arouet @TrumanFogler]

@tcboyle is music or writing harder to live off?
