Act Three Scene Act Two Scene
1,018 wordsWithin his tragic Hamlet, Shakespeare explores three definitions of madness. The definition presented by Ophelia is the only one I interpret as conventional madness, whereas I think the two presented by Hamlet are either feigned or the result of heightened emotions. Each condition contains similarities and differences that help to highlight the dramatic purpose that this theme provides to the play. The first of these conditions is named the antic disposition by Hamlet in act one, scene five, and...
