Description

When we hear or read the words of Shakespeare, we will find that there are solne repeated words or phrases, even sometimes sentences, which are very familiar ones to us, such as“words, words, word,”(HAM 2.2.192)or“To he, or競孟oわa..孟o伽, to sleep_to sleep_to aream_”(HAM 3.1.55-64)In such phrases, the one repeated thrice seems to be Inore often used than twice or other ones. When the writer reads Hamlet, this seems especially true to him. Moreover, we will recognize that these repetitions could be classified into some fixed patterns. We have to consider what in且uence on this repeated usage, for example, the Bible, or the Greek tragedies, etc. Or should we think what the effects of using these phrases are, when and how. But before that, we shall observe the frequency of each pattern first in this paper, and how many patterns are there in Hamlet? “The plaゾs the thing!”
