Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Fachbereich 05 Department of English and Linguistics), course: Seminar: British Literature I - Adapting Hamlet, language: English, abstract: Ever since Hamlet was written in 1599 it has been adapted countless times. Shakespeare's plot, as it was written over 400 years ago is still relevant for modern directors all over the world. It offers a great variety of different themes. In his Hamlet adaption Yorick, Salman Rushdie concentrates on the background and context of the main characters, criticizing the lack of logic in the original plot. His adaption also introduces the element of comedy into the original play. A fairly recent production of Shakespeare's tragedy is Suleyman Al-Bassam's 'The Al-Hamlet Summit'.
