I am halfway through the book. Jones has taken all this time to convince the reader that he is going to psychoanalyze Hamlet. How do you do that to a literary character? Jones just says that it is common sense to think that Hamlet is a alive. It is clear that history is in the making here. This book must have paved the way for Lacan to be adopted in literature departments in the US while thrown out elsewhere.
