Snopes Trilogy - The Hamlet, the Town, the Mansion

Here, for the first time published in a single volume as Faulkner always hoped they would be, are the three novels that compose the famous Snopes trilogy, a saga that stands as perhaps the greatest feat of Faulkner's imagination.

The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark

Hamlet is commonly regarded as one of the greatest plays ever written. Drawing on Danish chronicles and the Elizabethan vogue for revenge tragedy, Shakespeare created a play that is at once a philosophic treatise, a family drama, and a supernatural thriller. In the wake of his father's death, Prince Hamlet finds that his Uncle Claudius has swiftly taken the throne and married his mother, Queen Gertrude. The ghost of the dead king then appears and charges Claudius with 'murder most foul.' Hamlet is called to revenge his father's death: but will he be able to act before it is too late?

Hamlet. (level 3)

When the ghost of Hamlet's father reveals the terrible secret of Elsinore, the result is chaos and tragedy for the young Prince of Denmark. Will he avenge his father's murder? Is he really mad? Does he love the beautiful Ophelia?

King Rollo and the New Stockings

Cook has baked Mrs Harris a cake and would like King Rollo to deliver it to her. The only problem is how to get there. King Rollo is worried he'll forget the way. How he remembers the route and learns his left and right will take children on a hilarious journey and delight their parents. For over 20 years King Rollo and his friends, Hamlet the Cat, Cook, Queen Gwen, and the Magician have delighted both young and old, and this brand new tale is bound to be jumped upon by fans old and new.

Double Vision: Moral Philosophy and Shakespearean Drama

Hamlet tells Horatio that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in his philosophy. In Double Vision, philosopher and literary critic Tzachi Zamir argues that there are more things in Hamlet than are dreamt of--or at least conceded--by most philosophers. Making an original and persuasive case for the philosophical value of literature, Zamir suggests that certain important philosophical insights can be gained only through literature.
