Synopsis

Unknown until a copy was found in a closet in 1823, this 1603 version of Hamlet is one of the most important, mystifying, and controversial Shakespearean recoveries of the past two centuries. The fullest and probably original version of Shakespeare's Hamlet was published second, in 1604, with the posthumously published Folio of 1623 containing a third (revised?) version. The differences are the purpose of this collection, but controversy is inherent in the activity.
