| description | A recent Canadian rewriting of Shakespeare’s Hamlet stages characters in a Native Canadian reserve in Quebec. This paper shows how theatrical mixity may be seen as an element of resistance and the mise en abyme of theatre as an instrument of denunciation of the evils of the time.

The play, using several languages, also illustrates how language may be an element of resistance through the depiction of the predicament of a particular community inscribed in the eternally repeated history of mankind. |
