  • Killing Claudius Kill Claudius
    755 words
    Unlike most of the characters in this play, Hamlet displays unique ways of thinking, as well as a strange mentality towards loved ones. His reactions towards his mother, Claudius, and Ophelia are expressed with deep emotion, however, Hamlet chooses to release his emotions with immaturity and lack of self-control. Although his decisions are child-like, perhaps his most tragic flaw is the way he consistently argues with himself over how to accomplish the murder of Claudius. Throughout most of the ...

    Disillusionment. Depression. Despair. These are the burning emotions churning in young Hamlet's soul as he attempts to come to terms with his father's death and his mother's incestuous, illicit marriage. While Hamlet tries to pick up the pieces of his shattered idealism, he consciously embarks on a quest to seek the truth hidden in Elsinore; this, in stark contrast to Claudius' fervent attempts to obscure the truth of murder. Deception versus truth; illusion versus reality. In the play, Prince H...

  • Scene From Hamlet Laerties And Ophelia Walk
    414 words
    Many different directors have made Hamlet, by William Shakespeare, into a movie. In this case, I am going to compare a scene from Hamlet directed by Kenneth Branaugh to another scene from Hamlet starring Mel Gibson. The scene I am comparing is when Laerties is giving Ophelia advice about Hamlets love for her. In Kenneth Branaughs version, Laerties and Ophelia are outside the castle in the snow-covered garden. The camera stays very close up to their faces as they walk arm in arm and discuss Hamle...

  • Marry His Mother Kill His Father
    853 words
    So, what's up with Hamlet? This is a question thats been asked by many people about the character of Hamlet. Why was he unable to kill Claudius, even after his father commanded him to? Many people have their own explanations for Hamlets action, or rather in-action, in the play Hamlet, but I propose that Hamlets inability to act boils down to his Oedipus Complex. In Greek mythology there is a myth of a man named Oedipus who killed his father and married his mother. The psychologist Simon Freud de...

    In the past women have played a small role socially, economically, and politically. As a result of this, many works in literature were reflective of this kind of role for women. In Shakespeare's Hamlet the women in the play are the primary influence for the actions of many other characters. Gertrude, Hamlet's mother, and Ophelia, Hamlet's love, did affect many of the decisions and actions carried out by Hamlet. Gertrude influenced Hamlet a lot throughout the play. Hamlet was very angered by his ...

    "But no more like my father than I to Hercules. " Likewise, Lawrence Olivier's version of Hamlet is no more like Kenneth Branagh's than Othello to MacBeth. Nearly the only similarity is the script, and even that has been severely modified. In this quotation, the differences between the late King Hamlet and Claudius are displayed by Hamlet to his mother, Gertrude. In this paper, the differences between Lawrence Olivier and Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet are also shown. In comparing and contrasting Laur...

    Hamlet: A Tool of a Higher Power Kristine Theobald Throughout Shakespeare's Hamlet, it seems that a higher spiritual power is influencing the events taking place in the state of Denmark. A ghost of the recently deceased King Hamlet appears to Young Hamlet telling him of his most foul and most unnatural murder (1. 5. 30). This begins a chain of events leading up to the martyrdom of Hamlet, and the spiritual cleansing of the throne of Denmark. Firstly, Hamlet sees the evil and contemptible state o...

    Hamlet (Revenge) Revenge causes one to act irrational through anger, rather than through reason. This lack of reason through emotion is not a sane way to live by.

  • Hamlets Soliloquy Fathers Murder
    1,001 words
    The Ghost The Ghost Using all of his seemingly infinite faculties to compose Hamlet, Shakespeare gives each significant character in the play all the depth and emotion of a living human being. Because of this, the characters, as well as the plot, become extremely intricate and difficult to define. Simply assigning a label to each character does not do justice to their complexity because no one character acts according to any easily discernible guidelines. By this reasoning, it is difficult to de...

  • One Of Those Women Queen O Hamlet
    677 words
    In the play Hamlet Gertrude and Ophelia are portrayed as weak characters. The men in their lives have complete control over them. These women obviously do not have a mind of their own. If they listened to themselves, they would have more control of their lives. Ophelia is one of those women who is a lost cause to society. She makes women look helpless and that we can be easily manipulated. Hamlet basically used Ophelia as merely a toy to play with. She was never treated as a human being only as ...

    Hamlet Act I The Shakespearean tragedy has a predictable pattern: It centres around the life of a hero, who is always someone of great standing, someone exceptional and unusual. There is a reverse of fortune and the hero falls from the position of man who has everything to a man who has less than nothing. The hero is always portrayed in the exaggeration and everything is in a grand scale. When he sacrifices he sacrifices everything and his reach always exceeds his grasp. This exaggeration contri...
