AB  - Identifies earlier instance of Hamlet's gravedigger scene with Yorick's skull in "a medieval anecdote about an Irishman named Clefsan, in the Old Norse text Konungs skuggsjá (The King's Mirror)." Traces Clefsan's story, about a jester's skull that causes those who look into its mouth to laugh, through late medieval folklores.
