The Thing's the Play: Doing "Hamlet."
Sowder, Wilbur H., Jr.
English Journal, v82 n4 p65-67 Apr 1993
Argues for the use of film in the teaching of William Shakespeare's "Hamlet" because the play was meant to be seen and heard and not just read. Outlines a method of teaching the play by which students select a scene and perform it. Gives an example of a successful student performance. (HB)
