Contextual and Theoretical Studies Level 5 Week 16:Hamlet on the Holodeck Murray J. 1997

Looking at the narrative within cyberspace, in todays session, we mainly focused on Hamlet on the cover as within the book there were refrences much towards the big important mattes and those refrences were towards Shakespeare's use of language with what affect that had caused on the narrative history. J.L Austin's quote that 'Speech act changes the world' mentions that through the worlds communication skills we are able to develop our surroundings to what we want and linked this to the narrative role through stories being told throughout mans existence and through the stories knowledge is passed on and told which influences others who listen to those stories which help to carry on traditions or to survive through worse case scenarios.

Shakespeare's 'To be or not to be' was introduced to the world of the inner voice of a character in which thoughts are given to the inner voice which is for the individual being to allow them to think with their inner voice which lets them plan or think about how stuff can be done before actually doing it. Shakespeare's introduction to language brought many new words which brought new narrative to which made the simplest of sayings become a problem and was further produced by Laurence Sterne in Tristran Shandy.

With the digital media becoming much of a transgression across the world the new form of narrative has yet to be established becaue of the methods that were used in teh 20th century becoming irrelevant as the communication between technlogy which allows us to understand the new digital technology.
