Horatio Nelson at a young age had a love for the sea and with help from his family‚ mainly his father‚ he was able to start his naval career on his Uncle Maurice Suckling’s ship the HMS Raisonnable. He started as an ordinary seaman which is one who has one to two years of experience at sea and later was able to be a coxswain‚ one who steers and guides the ship‚ until he was promoted into a midshipman which would give him training on how he could improve his skills so he could one day be a higher

with negative attitudes Shakespeare shows the true Hamlet. I think one of the more oblivious and not so negative FOIL is Horatio‚ through all the madness they remain friends. In the play you get to experience the trust and loyalty between Hamlet and Horatio. The two characters are very much alike. They both show acts of kindness or softer side. I think Shakespeare use Horatio to show a more positive happy side of Hamlet. Though Shakespeare had positive foils to bring

Within both plays‚ Horatio and the Friar both fill the role of moral advisor to the protagonist‚ whose advice Giovanni and Hamlet both disregard. Interestingly‚ Horatio’s concern for Hamlet does not stem from an acknowledgement of the protagonist’s dubious moral code‚ but rather from a fear of the ghost’s intentions. Horatio’s source of perturbation is confirmed when he begs the prince to consider “What if it tempt you toward the flood‚ my lord.” Horatio appears to worry that the ghost has a malevolent

Hannah Gropper December 10‚ 2007 World Lit 10-5/Spencer The Influence of Horatio In Hamlet‚ the character of Horatio shapes Hamlet‚ and essentially the story line‚ more than any other character. Many would perceive Horatio as simply a foil for Hamlet‚ but he is much more. He is Hamlet’s sole confidante and friend in the play. Horatio is a very intelligent and learned man and he enjoys thinking and logic. What Horatio tells Hamlet throughout the play is nearly always exactly what Hamlet needs

Joshua Nooe Professor Hart RWS 200 20 October 2011 The Myth of Money and Success The American Dream is different for everyone‚ though it is most commonly associated with success‚ freedom‚ and happiness. The concept of the American Dream seems to have dwindled from where it was in the past few generations.

Potential I believe that out of all the characters in William Shakespeare ’s Hamlet‚ Horatio‚ has the most potential. What I mean by potential is that Horatio would make the best real person if he were not a character within the play. Besides Horatio‚ every other character seems to have some kind of major flaw or weakness in comparison. Claudius is obviously power hungry and only concerned with himself. Gertrude‚ although means well‚ is portrayed as betraying King Hamlet by sleeping with Claudius
