Situationally‚ I think this makes more sense when you consider it in the sense of an outcome. War can be foul‚ but the outcome fair…depending what side you are on. 2.              The reader ’s first impression of Macbeth actually

    Claudius conflict Understandably‚ the intense relationship between Hamlet and his uncle is not a sturdy bond‚ even before Hamlet learnt of his father’s murder‚ and before Claudius began to fear for his safety. It is believed that Hamlet’s distrust and dislike towards Claudius sprung from his mothers “o’erhasty marriage” 2.2.57 and would certainly be the origins of Hamlet’s suspicions. The best scene in which to view the relationship of Hamlet and Claudius would be Scene 3 of Act 4‚ where Claudius

    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
