  5. Mufasa'sGhost Mufasa’s ghost: Simba, you have forgotten me. Simba: No. How could I? Mufasa’sghost: You have forgotten who you are and so have forgotten me. Look inside yourself, Simba. You are more than what you have become. You must take your place in the Circle of Life.

  6. Hamlet’s Ghost A serpent stung me; so the whole ear of Denmark Is by a forged process of my death Rankly abused: but know, thou noble youth, The serpent that did sting thy father's life  Now wears his crown.

  7. Task: Compare and contrast Shakespeare's Hamlet with Disney's the Lion King. Success Criteria

  8. WABOLL The ghost scene in Hamlet is scary. The ghost scene in The Lion King is not scary. The characters in The Lion King are all animals. The characters in Hamlet are not animals. There is a play in Hamlet. Mufasa appears in the sky. The ghost in Hamlet is the same size as Hamlet. There’s no music or singing in Hamlet.

  9. WAGOLL Each deceased king approaches his son in the same way: via a ghost that gives a direct, if not mysterious, monologue which is closely tied to the themes of spirituality, truth, and uncertainty. Mufasa says, ‘Remember who you are. You are my son, and the one true king’.The Ghost’s presence brings the answers to Simba’sdeepest questions about who he is which drives him to action, ‘I'm going back!’ Hamlet sees the Ghost’s presence as a way to learn the truth so he can quickly, ‘’sweep to my revenge’. Hamlet’s father fulfils this by naming his murderer directly, ‘Thus was I, sleeping, by a brother's hand,  Of life, of crown, of queen, at once dispatch'd’. Both fathers end the encounter with a similar air of finality: ‘Adieu, adieu! Hamlet, remember me’ and ‘Remember who you are’.

  10. Peer Assess Even Better If: Can you explain what happened with the quote, ‘ Thus was I, sleeping, by a brother's hand,  Of life, of crown, of queen, at once dispatch'd’. What Works Well: You have explained what two quotes mean
