| Summary |
"Graham's Magazine, Vol. XXXVI, No. 5, May 1850" is a literary periodical published in the mid-19th century. This edition features a diverse collection of articles, poetry, and illustrations covering various topics including literature, art, and personal reflections. Readers can expect a rich tapestry of contributions from several authors, with particular emphasis on the works of Shakespeare, alongside engaging narratives and poems reflecting contemporary themes. The opening of this volume introduces a lengthy article analyzing the play "Hamlet," highlighting a recent critical examination by a German scholar named Ulrici. The author argues that each of Shakespeare's plays embodies a fundamental moral idea, using "Hamlet" as a case study to explore themes of discretion and character motivations. The analysis delves into specific scenes, illustrating how diverse qualities such as reserve, extravagance, and craft play into the overarching theme of the play. This probing examination serves to engage scholarly readers and theater enthusiasts with a profound appreciation for Shakespeare’s enduring literary legacy.
