Summary
Bradley Buchanan explores, in light of classical rhetorical theory and early modern intellectual culture, the many manifestations of affectation in Shakespeare's Hamlet. He shows that the previously unexamined aspect of Shakespeare's depictions of affectation lies in the catachrestic abuse of the word "affection" to signify affectation.
