All these qualities can be clearly seen in his tone during scene 1 of Antigone where Creon addresses the chorus as their king‚ and also receives new of Eteocles’ burial.

In my opinion‚ Hamlet was more tragic a play than Agamemnon. As the audience‚ I felt more inclined to sympathize with Hamlet due to his many sad soliloquies and series of events leading to his downfalls.

from the beginning of the scene‚ Macbeth ’s uncertainty about the murder is clear. Macbeth debates with his inner self in a soliloquy. Shakespeare often uses soliloquies to show Macbeth ’s inner thoughts‚ for example in Act 2 Scene 1 and Act 3 Scene 1. Soliloquies allow the audience to understand a character ’s motives better. The character is not putting on a show for anyone else but being their true self. We see directly into their thought process. In the first few lines of this soliloquy‚ Macbeth
