They were both born into royalty and throughout their lives were treated as such. Hamlet and Laertes were reared with the same forms of schooling‚ and were taught to abide by the same ethics and morals. Although Hamlet and Laertes seem to be "twined" with regard to family‚ royalty‚ and school‚ it is evident

A society is made up of many different individuals who will stand by their own beliefs. An individual is a single human being that is distant from a group or class.

Society offers us a wide variety of roles to play‚ and we are rewarded if we play them as well as possible. We fail to realize that being teenagers‚ parents‚ workers‚ doctors‚ and etc. are just roles and assume that we are simply participating in a genuine life.

Technology versus man is not only a theme found in literature‚ such as when the scientist‚ Frankenstein‚ created the monster who came alive and turned on the scientist‚ but is also a theme found in the real-life world of American economy. The Economist is a weekly newspaper focusing on politics and business news and opinion. It ran an article called “Into the Unknown” which put forth the idea that changes in technology that destroy jobs can also create new ones. The machine (created by man) will not necessarily

On the one hand‚ if we think of all the movies based on the revolution of the machines‚ it seems possible that‚ in the future‚ man will have to wage wars on machines (as in «I‚ Robot»‚ for instance).

Hamlet supports a large array of themes‚ but I feel that the most prominent theme‚ by far‚ must be that of Appearance vs Reality. Shakespeare’s work‚ very much open to interpretation of the individual reader‚ makes the question of the central theme one that proves difficult to choose but simple to support no matter the decision.
