Fishmonger (imported from my Hamlet blog)

Wednesday, January 30, 2008

Alexander van Adriaenssen (1587-1661) "The Fishmonger"
From the Arden:
fishmonger a comic mistake and presumably a deliberate one, establishing that Hamlet is feigning madness at this point. Since Malone, editors have argued about whether fishmonger carries connotations of 'fleshmonger' or bawd (see Jenkins).
