This may be simply because I am an anthiest, but I do not see so
many religious implications or themes in (underlined) Hamlet.
And, what does any of this have to do with using the lord's name
in vain? I'm not sure I follow where you are going with that
one.
"to stain himself for partisan revenge seemed to him a sure way
to fall into temptation and lose the election"
I do not follow this either. This is all to say that I do not
see so many religious threads running through this play. That's
fine if you do, but I think that a good case can be made that
Hamlet was merely acting as he saw fit for the sake of
justice and to take payment by blood for his father's murder.
Interesting, though as I said, I'm not sure I follow you.Posted by Todd on April 08, 1997 at 23:55:49
