The Prototype of Hamlet and Other Shakespearean Problems by William Preston Johnston is a book that explores various issues related to the works of William Shakespeare. The author delves into the origins of Hamlet, one of Shakespeare's most famous plays, and argues that the character of Hamlet was based on an earlier play by Thomas Kyd called The Spanish Tragedy. Johnston also examines other Shakespearean plays, including Macbeth and Julius Caesar, and discusses their historical and political contexts. Additionally, the book explores the authorship controversy surrounding Shakespeare's plays and addresses the question of whether he was the sole author of his works. Overall, The Prototype of Hamlet and Other Shakespearean Problems is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of Shakespeare's works and their place in literary history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
