What is General Principles of Hamiltonian Formulations of the Metric Gravity about?

Principles of successful Hamiltonian approaches, which were developed to describe free gravitational field(s) in the metric gravity, are formulated and discussed. By using the standard $\Gamma-\Gamma$ Lagrangian ${\cal L}_{\Gamma-\Gamma}$ of the metric GR we properly introduce all momenta of the metric gravitational field and derive the both canonical $H_C$ and total $H_t$ Hamiltonians of the metric GR. We also developed an effective method which is used to determine various Poisson brackets between analytical functions of the basic dynamical variables, i.e., generalized coordinates $g_{\alpha\beta}$ and momenta $\pi^{\mu\nu}$. In general, such variables can be chosen either from the straight $\{ g_{\alpha\beta}, \pi^{\mu\nu} \}$, or dual $\{ g^{\alpha\beta}, \pi_{\mu\nu} \}$ sets of symplectic dynamical variables which always arise (and complete each other) in any Hamiltonian formulation developed for the coupled system of tensor fields. By applying canonical transformation(s) of dynamical variables we reduce the canonical Hamiltonian $H_C$ to its natural form. The natural form of canonical Hamiltonian provides numerous advantages in actual applications to the metric GR, since the
