Gertrude and Claudius Questions and Answers
In what ways is Gertrude a very crucial character in the play "Hamlet"? I'm doing a reasearch paper about how Gertrude is the catalyst of all the events in Hamlet. She started the desire for Claudius to kill Hamlet's Father, for he loved her, she caused Hamlet to be suspicious of Claudius for her hasty decision to marry Claudius, etc. I'd like to gather as much information about this topic as possible. At the moment I can't seem to find any secondary sources to back-up my information appropriately and am hoping this discussion will help.
What should I write for my research paper concerning the topic "Gertrude and Claudius?" I have a senior thesis due this week. I am not sure what to research. My topic is Gertrude and Claudius, novel by John Updike. What content can I derive from literary works to use for my paper. I am considering Shakespeare's works such as Hamlet and Macbeth but I'm not sure what to do.
What can I research about concerning the novel Gertrude and Claudius for my senior thesis? I was told to write a senior thesis and my topic deals with the novel Gertrude and Claudius, after we finished reading Hamlet. My teacher gave us the freedom to research anything as long as its approved. I must show her 4 hard cover books. I do not know what 2 other books I should bring other than "Gertrude and Claudius" and Hamlet.
