Plot introduction The Hamlet is the first of the Snopes trilogy, completed by The Town Faulkner The Town 1957 , and The Mansion book The Mansion 1959 . The novel follows the exploits of the Snopes family, beginning with Ab Snopes, who is introduced more fully in Faulkner s The Unvanquished . Most of the book centers around Frenchman s Bend, into which the heirs of Ab and his family have migrated from parts unknown. In the beginning of the book Ab, his wife, daughter, and son Flem settle down as tenant farmers beholden to the powerful Varner family. As the book progresses, the Snopes move from being poor outcasts to a very controversial, if not dangerous, element in the life of the town. In contrast, V.K. Ratliff stands as the moral hero of the novel. Faulkner uses the eccentricities of the Snopes to great comic effect, most notably in his description of Ike Snopes and his carnal inclinations towards livestock.

The other two early printed texts of Hamlet are the second quarto Q2, 1604 and Folio F, 1623 subsequent quartos over the period 1604 1623 are all, at least in their substantive features, derived from Q2 . Both Q2 and F are more than 1600 lines longer than Q1. Q1 was unknown until 1823, when the first of only two known copies was discovered by Sir Henry Bunbury, 7th Baronet Sir Henry Bunbury . Since then the exact relationship between Q1 and the other early texts of the play, as well as its origin as a text, has been extensively debated but no scholarly consensus has been reached.
