HAMLET ESSAY REVENGE THEME

The essay should have a minimum of fivesources; at least twoshould be print books, and the others should be scholarly articles found in the HCCS Library databases. There are TWO exceptions: you can use film reviews, which are often available on the open Internet; and, if you find an open-Internet source that you feel is of scholarly quality, you can send me the link and ask permission to use it.

Although there are many wonderful things on the Internet, this project is mainly to train you in the use of traditional academic materials. So, I will look skeptically on much that you might find useful in simply Googling ?Hamlet.? Wikipedia is a wonderful source, and I recommend using it for ?grounding? yourself, but it is not an acceptable scholarly resource (though it might point your toward them). Also, eNotes, SparkNotes, and the innumerable other such sites are generally too inconsistent in quality to be acceptable for a formal academic project.

The finished essay must be at least 1600words long, NOT counting the Works Cited. It must be formatted using MLA guidelines ? accurately and consistently.
