Theatre in Hamlet Notes
Theatre in Hamlet:
Consider the line,
"holds a seat in this distracted globe" (1.5.91 95-97)
Here globe could refer to:
Hamlet’s mind

Globe theatre
- antic-disposition
his feigned temperament of the fool and madman, is an objective correlative for the condition of his country and rile

of hamlet the play is deliberately and insistently paralleled to the mind or globe of hamlet the man
- the distracted globe
is also the mysterious world of the theatre, in which we sit as spectators
