The Cause Of Hamlet's Tragedy

Hamlet’s tragedies comes from a number of things. Hamlet is already upset and angry over his father’s death. Not knowing who killed his father truly has him distraught. When the play starts you can tell Hamlet is in grief, to the point he wishes he was dead. Hamlet even thinks about suicide. “Oh, that this too, too sullied flesh would melt had not fixed his canon against self- slaughter” (Hamlet, 1.2, 132)
The second cause of Hamlet’s tragedy would be his mother Gertrude. The fact that his mother does not support him through his time of grief, and she goes and remarries his uncle, a man that Hamlet does not really care for. “O God, a beast that wants discourse of reason Would have mourned longer!—married with my uncle” (Hamlet, 1.2, 150-152)
The third tragedy is when get Rosencrantz and Guildenstern was killed. When Hamlet changes the original letter to get Rosencrantz and Guildenstern killed is when Hamlet evil side comes into play. “Why, even in that was heaven ordinant. I had my father’s signet in my purse, Which was the model of that Danish seal. Folded the writ up in form of th' other, Subscribed it, gave ’t th' impression, placed it safely, The changeling never known. Now, the next day Was our sea fight, and what to this was sequent Thou know’st already” (Hamlet, 5.2, 52-59) As a result of Polonius death, his daughter Ophelia is losing her mind and his son Laertes is wants revenge. Addition matters, when Polonius tries to spy on Hamlet and his mother, thus contributes to Hamlet tragedy. Hamlet accidently kills him when he realizes someone was behind the curtain. “How now, a rat? Dead for a ducat, dead! (Stabs his sword trough the arras and kills Polonius)” (Hamlet, 3.4, 24-27) If Hamlet would not noticed Polonius, He would not have acted in anger and Polonius would not have died. Ophelia would not have lost her mind and Laertes would never agree to a fencing
