Reflection & Bibliography

    In this blog I just tried to show everyone the humour side of Hamlet as it's always associated with being boring, but I actually found it really funny. So I added all I could find that was funny about Hamlet, but then I realized that most of the jokes no one form our time would understand without having studied the Elizabethan era, so I added some info and links on relevant topics from Elizabethan times to give some insight and allow for the reader to understand the background of the jokes and hopefully get the chance to understand them. Once I did that I began finding and pointing out some funny parts from the play and briefly explained them. Followed by finding some contemporary examples of Hamlet humour, which included videos, pictures and songs made within the past few years. Because my visualization of my blog was to make Hamlet interesting to my generation while at the same time keeping it as professional as possible as it is a major project. But the focus of my project was on the humour side of Hamlet with the intent of appealing to younger generations as well as the older generations.

          Other than YouTube, Google Images, the provided links or the script itself I didn't use references other than my knowledge from watching the 1996 version of the play and reading the script itself. The one thing I did research was the Elizabethan background, which was off of 2 pages. Which are...

            Other than that my blog was really cut and dry, mostly written as I thought it.
