    revolved around loyalty. Hamlets mother was not loyal to his father. But many do not realize how much of an impact that is on his life. He soon starts to doubt every person in life‚ except for Horatio‚ who has stayed loyal to him during this entire time. And Hamlet thanks him for that‚ and keeps him dear to his heart. The main motif that is continually stressed is loyalty. Every character either breaks it or makes it stronger. And through out the play we see how this affects Hamlet‚ how it changes his

Both sides of the argument can

However‚ I feel there are two options that can be seen here concerning Gertrude as a person‚ and neither of them are positive

    even coming back to some stages before moving on to the next. Even though these stages were not identified until the 20th century one of the earliest examples we can look at is in Shakespeare’s play “Hamlet” where the main protagonist‚ Hamlet‚ goes through these five stages. However‚ with Hamlet‚ like many of us‚ he experiences these in his own order. This first stage of grieving helps us to survive the loss. In this stage‚ the world becomes meaningless and overwhelming.
