revolved around loyalty. Hamlets mother was not loyal to his father. But many do not realize how much of an impact that is on his life. He soon starts to doubt every person in life‚ except for Horatio‚ who has stayed loyal to him during this entire time. And Hamlet thanks him for that‚ and keeps him dear to his heart. The main motif that is continually stressed is loyalty. Every character either breaks it or makes it stronger. And through out the play we see how this affects Hamlet‚ how it changes his

Shakespeare’s famous revenge tragedy Hamlet is a story of unrelenting twists and thrills of madness and revenge. I have chosen to compare this play to Michael Almereyda’s film made in 2000 that is a modern interpretation of the original text and was an attempt to do to Hamlet what Baz Luhrman did to Romeo and Juliet. This a brief synopsis of the play; Hamlet is the son of King Hamlet who died before the play begins. King Hamlets brother‚ Claudius takes the throne and marries his wife. The story

The Experiences Carl Dennis’ poem‚ “The God Who Loves You”‚ has a theme and tone much like Nathaniel Hawthorne’s‚ “Young Goodman Brown.” The two narratives tell a tale of a man making his own choices in life; however the choices are bleak and the consequences of each choice in the two stories result in a disheartening and questionable resolution. Tone and theme play a critical role in Carl Dennis’‚ “The God Who Loves You‚” and Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “Young Goodman Brown‚” each portrays parts of

One could argue that the actors in the play that proved Claudius was in fact a killer are heros because they didn’t let a guilty man walk. Hamlet might also be defined as a hero because he avenged his father but he waited until he had facts to do so. However there are those who might say that Hamlet and the Actors are not heros at all‚ but in fact are the villains in that story because they either directly or indirectly killed someone. Both sides of the argument can

HAMLET RESPONSE An optimist is a person who usually expects a favorable outcome‚ they think positively about things. A Pessimist is the complete opposite ‚ a pessimist has a tendency to stress the negative or unfavorable or to take the gloomiest possible view of things. I believe that Hamlet is a pessimist because of what he says and what he thinks of life‚ as he explains in the soliloquy ‚ “When he himself might his quietus make with a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear”. This quote shows that

Gertrude is a very minute character in Hamlet‚ yet the same cannot be said about her impact on the action of the play. Certain audiences view Gertrude in different ways‚ some sympathise with her as a character‚ and see her actions as empowering towards women as a whole‚ letting loose of the social conventions of the Shakespearian era‚ in addition to being a caring mother. However‚ I feel there are two options that can be seen here concerning Gertrude as a person‚ and neither of them are positive

In the play “Hamlet” by William Shakespeare‚ the character hamlet is such a complete and unusual character. You would be hard-pressed finding a better-developed dramatic personality. Hamlet’s seems to be a paradox. Whenever I try to understand him‚ he changes. This is what I think has attracted audiences to the play for ages and what I found most compelling. The moment we see Hamlet we are captivated by his contradictions. He is irresponsible and responsible‚ uncontrolled and controlled‚ friendly
