Hamlet Paragraph
In the classic play Hamlet, Shakespeare uses diction and imagery to help align
the reader with Hamlet and the Ghost’s hatred towards King Claudius and Queen
Gertrude.
!
In this passage of the play Hamlet, Shakespeare uses an abundance of negative
diction to clearly let the reader see how much hatred there was, coming from Hamlet and the Ghost and directed to the King and the Queen. “Ay, that incestuous, that adulterate beast,” (13-14). This quote should jump out to anyone who has really delved into this play because it more than clearly explains how the ghost is feeling. Anyone could see that he is absolutely disgusted with this marriage between his former wife and his brother. It’s explicit to a reader because of the use of negative diction; like the words
‘incestuous,’ ‘adulterate,’ and ‘beast.’ All of those words normally describe something that is bad, or, of course, negative.
