The figure of Hamlet haunts our culture like the Ghost haunts him. Arguably, no literary work, not even the Bible, is more familiar to us than Shakespeare's Hamlet. Everyone knows at least six words from the play; often people know many more. Yet the play-Shakespeare's longest-is more than "passing strange" and becomes deeply unfamiliar when considered closely.
