Upon reading the sampling of Hamlet criticisms in John Jumps Hamlet (Selections) I disagreed with a few of the critics, but my analysis was the most different from Wilson Knights interpretation. He labels Hamlet as a sick, cynical, and inhumane prince (Jump, 124) who vitiated a Denmark which was one of healthy and robust life, good-nature, humor, romantic strength, and welfare. In his book, The Wheel of Fire, he co...

Contemporary Literary Criticism Vol Theme Of The Book
1,816 wordsThe Themes of Slaughterhouse-Five The first theme of Slaughterhouse-Five, and perhaps the most obvious, is the war and its contrast with love, beauty, humanity, innocence etc. Slaughterhouse-Five, like Vonnegut's previous books, manages to tell us that war is bad for us and that it would be better for us to love one another. To find the wars contrast with love is quite difficult, because the book doesnt talk about any couple that was cruelly torn apart by the war (Billy didnt seem to love his wi...
