  • Resumen

  • As an affiliated podcast of John Adams Academy, our purpose is to “restore America’s heritage by developing servant leaders who are keepers and defenders of the principles of freedom.” Our desire is to lead a revolution in education by modeling classical education for our staff, scholars, and their families, especially the dialectic approach of reading and discussing great books. We want to extend classical education to as many people as we can because of its ability to form great souls and great citizens.

After a brief summary of the plot by Mr. Conklin, the group discusses the grief of Hamlet at the loss of his father and the hasty marriage of his mother and uncle. They consider whether the preciousness of life is directly connected to its mortal and finite nature. They also discuss Hamlet's famous "To be, or not to be" soliloquy and whether Hamlet's attitude towards death and improper valuing of his own life is the cause of the whole tragedy.
