Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Critics have long debated the significance of the dumb show in Hamlet. There is a wide divergence of opinion on the matter of its importance: to one critic, it is 'only a mechanical necessity'; to another, 'the keystone to the arch of the drama.' In modern performances of Hamlet, it is frequently omitted, a decision vigorously protested by some critics as detrimental to the play scene. But the presence of the dumb show in the play scene has given rise to questions that evoke little unanimity of response even among its proponents. Why does the mime directly anticipate the subject matter of The Murder of Gonzago Does Shakespeare preview Gonzago to provide necessary information If not, is the dumb show then superfluous And if superfluous, was the device forced on Shakespeare, or was it merely a politic catering to popular taste Is the show foisted on Hamlet by the visiting players If not, how does it serve his larger plan and purpose What is its effect on the stage audience Does Claudius see the pantomimic prefiguring of Gonzago What does his silence during and immediately after the show signify The search for answers to such questions is usually confined to the play scene. But Professor Cox maintains that the true nature and function of the show can be apprehended only through a careful consideration of its place in the total design. In this connection, she poses other questions that suggest the advisability of taking a larger view of the problem. Is Hamlet's expression of contempt for dumb shows significant in a play that includes one What is intended by the frequent parallels, both implicit and explicit, between the 'puppets' in the court entertainment and the characters in Hamlet Do the reiterated allusions to 'dumbness' throughout Hamlet throw any light on the mute scene In a closely reasoned and remarkably perceptive analysis, Miss Cox demonstrates conclusively that Shakespeare did indeed intend that the dumb show function as an intrinsic component of the whole figurative and structural pattern. Lee Sheridan Cox is an associate professor of English at the Ohio State University.
