    There are many ways one could argue whether or not Hamlet is insane or that he really is a psycho killer. Along those lines‚ I believe that Hamlet did in fact go completely bonkers and everything that happened that was not in the presence of the king or queen was just a figment of his imagination. After contemplating this I’ve made up a conclusion why exactly I think he is insane. In act 1‚ scene 4‚ line 68‚ Horatio says to Hamlet‚ “What if it tempt you toward the flood‚ my lord‚ or to the dreadful

Yeo implies that Bertha is not truly insane and that Jane’s willingness to accept Bertha’s
