What is meant by this is that in a kingdom there will always be people who are not in favor of the person in charge. However‚ in a functioning kingdom a strong leader is of essence. The arrival of Fortinbras in Act 5 Scene 2 of Hamlet is clear evidence that Shakespeare was in hopes of a noble leader replacing Elizabeth

To begin with‚ Hamlet’s first instance of showing a cowardly mindset is when he questions himself in his “Oh what a peasant slave am I” soliloquy

The foils of Hamlet‚ Laertes and Fortinbras‚ who immediately avenged their father’s deaths‚ are perfect examples of the success a “Man of Action’ can obtain. Unlike his opposites‚ Hamlet becomes so entangled with his own thought process‚ that he cannot make a
