Mortality and the will to do such spiteful actions are what prolongs such hate and calamity between characters, including their flaring emotions in this play. “Give every man thy ear , but few thy voice voice; take each man’s censure, but reserve thy judgment....for...sulphurous and tormenting flames must render up myself.” The ideology of going to Hell and burning for an eternity outweighs the person’s struggles or the various problems they may be facing. So focusing on their pain rather than death, they are controlled by emotions and unable to do the necessary actions to end their calamity. Hamlet refers to the concept that everyone rather go through their pain than die. According to line 91, “Conscience” and “makes cowards of us all,” contribute to the mortal concept in this life. Everyone is afraid of the idea of death. According to lines 89-90, people rather put ip with grief than die. The fear of death is real reason people prolong their calamity to such great lengths of time and stress. According to lines 87-88, state that, “The undiscovered country”, which is hell, a “country” that only resides in the other life and “no traveler returns”, telling that who have died do not possess such …show more content…

A common central idea that is often used but never easily seen in life and is in this play is “Action vs Inaction.” According to lines 88, “Puzzles the will and makes us rather bear those ills that we have.
Hamlet refers to people not knowing why they continue to go through the pain they have and therefore will prevent or cure them of their pain. According to lines 95-96, “ With this regard their currents turn awry and lose the name of action.” Even in lines 84-90, “And makes us rather bear those ills we have then they to others that we know not of.” Folks rather stay with their current situation constantly thinking that the next or different problem could be worse than their current dilemma. Leaving them in a loop of confusion and pain, just endless
calamity.
Connecting the central ideas, I think that “Mortality” lead by “Action vs Inactions”, the person devastated by their calamity makes think a way out of their situation and forces them to question the value of their mortality. In the movie of the play, Hamlet had the chance to kill King Claudius, but he didn’t. He saw that King Claudius was praying for forgiveness, Hamlet thinking if he killed the King in that current state, it could render his forgiven soul to heaven, thus defeating the purpose of Hamlets mission.
