Question: What version of Hamlet is more philosophically!?
If you don't know there is different versions of Hamlet I can't help you!. Remember, I asked which version is more philosophically, not which version is closer to the original imagined by Shakespeare!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's probably not Quarto 1, 2 or Folio 1!. Rather, it's likely the so-called conflagation (in which the three are attempterd to be combined) which is the most philosophical!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think Billy The Bard was a great philosopher in his own right - a version that deviates from the original story can lose some meaning, depending on the degree of deviation!.

If an author, playwrite, movie-maker etc constructs a story significantly different from Bill's Hamlet, then it's not Hamlet!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
