A Crux in Hamlet Revisited" AU - Vozar, T.M PY - 2022 DA - 2026 LA - English AB - Studies different spellings and interpretations of Mallico/Malicho from different early editions of Hamlet: "This is myching Mallico, that meanes my chiefe" (Q1); "Marry this munching Mallico, it meanes mischiefe’"(Q2); "Marry this is Miching Malicho, that meanes Mischeefe" (F). Notes persistence of Thomas Hamner's gloss of word as "a wicked act, a piece of iniquity’, after Spanish malhecho." Proposes instead that that Mallico is “orthographical variant of” malligo as in Malaga wine.
