Value of Life My view on the value of a human life is very similar to Roger Ebert’s value of his own life. Ebert believed that his life was priceless. He believed that no matter what happened to him physically he still could smile and love his work. I believe that my life has no price‚ my life is also priceless and I am grateful and appreciative for the life I live. Unlike Ebert and me‚ Hamlet’s value of his own life differs. A person’s life cannot be valued in money no matter what the person’s social

The truth is that hamlet’s thought of what he is doing are the steps of duty ethics Which is not a thought process that an insane person would use to do any thing. Hamlet is playing the best role and that is the mad role of which brings everything to the tragedy of the play. Hamlet has three characteristics to his madness: Get revenge for his father‚ kill the murderous king Claudius

Why Hamlet Cannot Act After reading Shakespeare ’s Hamlet‚ Prince of Denmark‚ one comes to the conclusion that Prince Hamlet is defined by his indecision. This indecision has a dire consequence‚ namely the inability to act‚ which ultimately leads to his death and the deaths of most of the other characters by the play’s end‚ thus becoming Prince Hamlet’s tragic flaw.

Freud believed that Hamlet did not kill Claudius the first time he saw him because Hamlet saw himself as the enemy. This sounds like a solid reason to me. Who am I to say that it is not? However‚ I also find Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s reasoning very interesting. He believed that Hamlet did not kill Claudius the first time because he was praying. This sounds almost too easy‚ although very legitimate. Now‚ I am not one to say which interpretation is right‚ or even ponder

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

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
