    Ambiguity In Hamlet

    • 297 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The character Hamlet is the central character of the play. All the actions of the play revolve around him and his behaviors. His apparent madness adds depth to his character‚ and makes the plot itself more interesting. To achieve this‚ William Shakespeare created some ambiguity and tension by raising a dilemma. Is Hamlet really insane? Or is he just pretending to be? At the beginning of the play‚ Hamlet states that “As I perchance hereafter shall think meet to put an antic disposition on” (I.5.190-192)

    does Hamlet present both an outward and inward conflict? Although Hamlet’s flaws‚ melancholy‚ and pretended madness all lead to his inevitable downfall‚ the inward and outward conflicts of Man vs. Self‚ Man vs. Man and Man vs. Society (which arouse from Hamlet’s acts of revenge for his father’s death) ultimately play a key role as they are what trigger him to make most of the actions he commits which leads to the tragic downfall in Hamlet. I believe Shakespeare uses the character of Hamlet to present

    Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are both on stage for this soliloquy but they do not hear his words. Hamlet likens his inaction to being a beast‚ which does naught but eat and sleep. He laments that the wit and intelligence so carefully granted to him by the creator has gone unused and wasted. Whether foolishness‚ doubt‚ or fear of the outcome‚ thoughts split in this manner‚ just prove him to be a coward. Hamlet sees the army of Fortinbras below‚ 20‚000 strong‚ marching to war. He admires the ‘delicate

    this essay‚ I am going to talk about a part of act 5‚ scene 2 of Hamlet‚ written by Shakespeare. This passage written in verse is the catastrophy of the play. Hamlet‚ after being wounded by Laertes’ poisonned sword finally revenges the death of his father by killing Claudius. The presence of repeted themes such as death and redemption in this passage‚ gives the drama a tensed athmosphere . "Lo‚ here I lie‚ never to rise again (...) I can no more. The King‚ the King’s to blame" (5.2.349-351) The use

    In the play “Hamlet” by William Shakespeare‚ the character hamlet is such a complete and unusual character. You would be hard-pressed finding a better-developed dramatic personality. Hamlet’s seems to be a paradox. Whenever I try to understand him‚ he changes. This is what I think has attracted audiences to the play for ages and what I found most compelling. The moment we see Hamlet we are captivated by his contradictions. He is irresponsible and responsible‚ uncontrolled and controlled‚ friendly
