Excerpt from Memoranda on the Tragedy of Hamlet The following pages contain merely a few straggling memoranda on the tragedy of Hamlet selected from a large number of notes made chiefly in years gone by, and now issued in the hope that they include suggestions which may be useful to future editors or critics. Had I consulted my own reputation, or now cared much for the slender credit attached to works on Shakespearean criticism, it would have been better to have framed the notes into a connected essay, but the stealing steps are now in rapid movement and warn me that, unless this and similar contributions to Shakespearean literature are produced in a slipshod and uncorrected fashion, they will never see the light at all. The question whether the first edition of Hamlet is a first sketch or a surreptitious copy of the tragedy is not one of merely biographical curiosity.
