Fictional Characters Who Studied Abroad #24:
Hamlet (and Laertes, Horatio, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern), Hamlet

CLAUDIUS:
You are the most immediate to our throne;
And with no less nobility of love
Than that which dearest father bears his son,
Do I impart toward you. For your intent
In going back to school in Wittenberg,
It is most retrograde to our desire:
And we beseech you, bend you to remain
Here, in the cheer and comfort of our eye,
Our chiefest courtier, cousin, and our son.
(Act I, Scene II)
