Скачать или смотреть Soliloquies and monologues from Hamlet

0:00 Intro
0:05 "O that this too too solid flesh..."
(Hamlet addresses the audience, sharing his grief about his father's passing, his mother's overhasty marriage with his uncle, and his uncle wearing the crown.)
3:12 "O all you host of heaven..."
(Hamlet reacts to rather bad news from the Ghost - that his uncle murdered his father and that Hamlet must seek vengeance.)
4:57 "O what a rogue and peasant slave am I." (After watching a passionate performance by the lead player ((actor)) in a local theatre troupe, Hamlet laments to the audience about his seeming inability to respond with appropriate passion to his own situation.)
8:16 "To be, or not to be, that is the question."
(The context and message of this monologue are hotly debated. My interpretation is that Hamlet is debating if he should let his uncle's crimes go unpunished, thus saving his own life, or confirm the Ghost's claims and avenge his father, likely dying in the process. This piece is performed as a soliloquy to the audience instead of a monologue to Ophelia, though both are arguably valid interpretations.)
11:28 "'Tis now the very witching time of night."
(Hamlet has just had the Ghost's story confirmed by his play within a play gambit and now shares his rage and immediate plans with the audience.)
12:40 "Alas, poor Yorick!"
(After a battle of wits with a local gravedigger, Hamlet realizes the skull being exhumed from a grave is his childhood friend, the Court Jester Yorick. He shares his memories of Yorick with Horatio and ponders mortality. Again.)
