"In the struggle to act within a corrupt world, and yet maintain MORAL INTEGRITY, Hamlet ultimately reflects the fate of all human beings."


Hello Everyone,

In an effort to try and explain my situation a little better to the senior social worker (Mr Madden) who is helping me, I sent the "Hamlet Information" e-mail reproduced below to him yesterday evening.

On a parallel and more practical basis, I later sent a second e-mail to Mr Madden yesterday evening suggesting that there may be a solution to my legal problems through "Human Rights Law" - which the entire legal profession appears to be in total denial about at the present time as far as European citizens are concerned? - which also just happens to be very convenient for some people of course!!

For anyone interested, a copy of my second "practical" e-mail to Mr Madden can be viewed at:

Best wishes to all,

William.

Dear Gerry,

If you have the interest, and the time, there is some information on the "Hamlet" observations below which I mentioned to you during our meeting earlier today.

"In the struggle to act within a corrupt world, and yet maintain MORAL INTEGRITY, Hamlet ultimately reflects the fate of all human beings" - one of several such comments I have recently come across.

In the text below, King Hamlet's ghost describes his own murderous poisoning, of some months earlier, to his son - in a way which (some people speculate) Shakespeare may have intended to reflect the manner in which corruption has poisoned the entire body of humanity:

"Brief let me be. Sleeping within my orchard,
My custom always of the afternoon,
Upon my secure hour thy uncle stole,
With juice of cursed hebenon in a vial,
And in the porches of my ears did pour
The leperous distilment; whose effect
Holds such an enmity with blood of man
That swift as quicksilver it courses through
The natural gates and alleys of the body,
And with a sudden vigour doth posset
And curd, like eager droppings into milk,
The thin and wholesome blood: so did it mine;
And a most instant tetter bark'd about,
Most lazar-like, with vile and loathsome crust,
All my smooth body." (Act I, scene 5)

Hello Everyone,

While looking around for information on the above quote this morning, I accidentally came across an address which some victims of bullying might find useful. If interested, please click:
http://www.clinical-depression.co.uk/Understanding_Depression/neg_spin.htm

I also came across a few other bits and pieces of text from Hamlet (Circa 1601 A.D.) which may strike a chord with some:

=============

"To be, or not to be, --- that is the question:---
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them?"

=============

"Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried
grapple them unto thy soul with hoops of steel..."

(Modern English: If you already have one or more friends, and you feel you can really trust them: bind them to you with bands of steel.)

=============

"Hamlet is without question the most famous play in the English language. Probably written in 1601 or 1602, the tragedy is a milestone in Shakespeare's dramatic development; the playwright achieved artistic maturity in this work through his brilliant depiction of the hero's struggle with two opposing forces: moral integrity and the need to avenge his father's murder." (This piece of text has been copied from: http://www.enotes.com/hamlet/ )
