If ’t be so‚ Hamlet is of the faction that is wrong ’d; His madness is poor Hamlet ’s enemy." (V.ii.230-235) Hamlet ’s self-description in his apology to Laertes‚ delivered in the appropriately distanced and divided third-person‚ explicitly fingers the greatest antagonist of the play‹consciousness.
