Providing a wealth of insight, information and analysis, Hamlet: York Notes Advanced is a comprehensive study resource which provides the knowledge and understanding you’ll need in order to perform at the highest level in an English Literature A Level examination or undergraduate essay.

Examiners will award the highest marks to candidates who can demonstrate in their answers and essays that they understand and can discuss, using appropriate evidence, aspects of the play such as whether Hamlet is genuinely mad or merely feigning madness, why Shakespeare includes comic scenes within a tragedy or the wider significance of the play’s recurring references to health, disease and physical decay.

York Notes’ Hamlet revision bundle, consisting of the print and online study guides, represents the most complete study and revision aid for what is arguably Shakespeare’s greatest play. Comprehensive and detailed analysis of the text and its themes, characters, events, language and context are coupled with useful tools to help you create essays that will demonstrate your understanding of Hamlet and allow you to earn the highest grade you can at English Literature A Level.

William Shakespeare was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's preeminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon". His surviving works, including some collaborations, consist of 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and several other poems. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.

Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire and was baptised on 26 April 1564. Thought to have been educated at the local grammar school, he married Anne Hathaway, with whom he went on to have three children, at the age of eighteen, before moving to London to work in the theatre. Two erotic poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece were published in 1593 and 1594 and records of his plays begin to appear in 1594 for Richard III and the three parts of Henry VI. Shakespeare's tragic period lasted from around 1600 to 1608, during which period he wrote plays including Hamlet and Othello. The first editions of the sonnets were published in 1609 but evidence suggests that Shakespeare had been writing them for years for a private readership.

Shakespeare spent the last five years of his life in Stratford, by now a wealthy man. He died on 23 April 1616 and was buried in Holy Trinity Church in Stratford. The first collected edition of his works was published in 1623.

3.0 out of 5 stars Defecto de impresión

La guía se ve genial, con todo muy bien detallado. Me ha dolido tener que devolverla, ya que al parecer debe ser un error de impresión en todo el lote, ya que solicité el reemplazo por otra y me llegó enseguida, pero debo devolverla de nuevo por el mismo motivo. Es la primera vez que me pasa con estas guías, ya que tengo otros títulos de esta editorial y son estupendos, algo que recomiendo sin duda. Espero que puedan solventar el problema pronto.

I find the York Notes series better than other resources for teaching at the AP and IB level. This one especially provides the kind of detail, analysis, and connections that are necessary for the serious student. This will be a great supplement to Asimov's Guide to Shakespeare when I revamp my lesson plans for next year.

We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
- William Shakespeare

One of the things that puts a lot of people off Shakespeare is his wonderful but difficult to understand use of the English language. In this comprehensive and useful study guide the student can grasp not only the complexities of the language and its use but also the events and themes too. This study guide isn't too complex and it isn't too dumbed down either.

It provides clear and incisive explanations, critical analysis and commentaries of each scene. The book also has a glossary for any tricky meanings, references and words. To get the most of out any Shakespeare play you can't go wrong with York Notes. You'll end up with a much more thorough understanding of where the Bard was coming from.
