Who really is Hamlet? Why should we care about him?
What does research add to your own perceptions?
*Go on the databases on either Munising Library's website or on the St. Norbert Databases
*Be prepared to cite the database to add strength to your argument or you may disagree with it.
*Answer the question/s and/or create your own argument:
*What does Hamlet mean as a play (and as a person symbolically?)
*How has his tragedy changed from Sophocles?
*Do you feel that Hamlet is mentally ill or just pretending?
*Your own argument
For full credit, you MUST have quotations as support of your points, you MUST show reading and avoid online summary info, you MUST respond to a minimum of 2 posts. Points will be deducted for those students who wait until the last 12-24 hours, for spelling problems, repeating information already stated, confusing responses, attacking classmates verbally, simply agreeing without saying much of anything, or off-topic commentary.
------Having support from databases may be given additional credit if used well----
DATABASES REQUIRED FOR THIS BLOG, but your argument will be judged harshly, so be prepared to defend yourself!
**This blog will end at 9 a.m. on 12/13. Remember that starting on the last 12-24 hours prior will result in loss of points since your discussion will be limited. I prefer you post something by 12/10 with the encroaching Christmas vacation.
