HAMLET - Techniques Supporting Thesis (1 Viewer)

[waycoolsteve]

hey guys.
this was posted in the standard forum, anyway.
am wondering if i anybody would be able to help me out with my critical study of Hamlet.
Basically, i need some techniques to support the thesis of "Hamlet is about death and the mystery of the afterlife"
any ideas?
thanks

Yorrick's skull as a symbol for death
Hamlet's soliliquies which focus on suicide
the motif of the ghost through out as an insight into the afterlife

simple ones

Also, look into the fact that Hamlet has no way fo knowing if the ghost is his father, or an apparition from the devil. there's pretty much direct quotes showing his doubt, so its not even slightly theoretical
