HAMLET Then is doomsday near: but your news is not true.
Let me question more in particular: what have you, my good friends, deserved at the hands of fortune, that she sends you to prison hither? GUILDENSTERN Prison, my lord! HAMLET Denmark's a prison. ROSENCRANTZ Then is the world one. HAMLET A goodly one; in which there are many confines, wards and dungeons, Denmark being one o' the worst. ROSENCRANTZ We think not so, my lord. HAMLET Why, then, 'tis none to you; for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so: to me it is a prison. Hamlet's point of view on the world is shown in this quote. He considersthe world as a prison,unable to act on his emotions, he is forced tolet them build. The world is a prison in a way for socityes laws chain up a persons super ego. The want that lives in every one is put away because it is" unexceptable" to display in society, but that is human nature which explains why human are not perfect. They are just not perfect for society.Hamlet in return is left with revange in his heart that is not able to bring about justice on his murdous uncle. which in turn would have saved the life of three other inocent victums.

The queen drinks the poison ment to murder prince Hamlet.
" No no, the drink , the drink! O, my dear Hamlet! The drink, the drink! I am poisoned" "O villany! Ho! Let the door be locked. Trechery! Seek it out! ( Act 5 Sc.2) This irony within this quote is dramatic irony. In the kings attempt to murder Hamlet he kills the wife he worked so hard to marry.The kings plans are crushed by the power of Karma, and now he is to be killed for the justice of the murders he has cometed.The queen who easily married another only two mounthes afrter her husbands death, has been put to rest with her origanal husband. Hamlet shocked in all the racket , has lost another. His life is next to be taken so the revange on the King comes to late. Tis not alone my inky cloal../nor customary suits of solemn black,/Nor…forced breath/No, nor the fruitful river in the eye,/Nor the dejected ‘havior of the visage…/with all forms, moods, [and] shapes of grief,/That can denote me truly” These indeed "seem", For they are actions that a man might play." (Act 1 sc 2)
Hamlet insists that he is an individual with many psychological and philosophical acets, though he himself will have difficulty in understanding and accepting all of his layers. Throughout the play, Hamlet reasserts his complexity and cautions the other characters will go against him.Reducing him to a single, predictable type,or a mad type. The lesson that Shakespeare shows is that human beings are both good and bad, and that their complexity should not be negated, but rather explored. The charactor Hamlet can be seen as a dynamic charactor. For with this quote the reader can see that shakepeare sets this charactor up for matureity. Hamlet trys to find himself, how he sees the world,his schemea and starts thinking out of the box, but ends up over thinking situations . As seen in "Why, what an ass am I! This is most brave" in( Act 2 Sc. 2), Hamlet is in search for " sense of self" which most teen go through. The lose of his father has made him to think "who I am." “That this too solid flesh would melt, / Thaw, and resolve itself into a dew! / Or that the Everlasting had not fix’d / His canon ‘gainst self-slaughter! O God! God!/Tis an unweeded garden That grows a seed.Things rank and gross in nature Posses it merely. That it should come to this but two mounths dead." (Act 1 sc. 2)
At this early point in the text it is clear that Hamlet is weighing the benefits versus the ending his own life, but also that he recognizes that suicide is a crime in God’s eyes and could thus make his afterlife worse than his present situation. Hamlet moans over his father's murder, and is angry , and confused. The memorys consently torture him inside. Hamlet sees life as an unweeded garden that grows a seed. life is a mess of confusion, and danger, and the seed is stuck in it.Why is sucide so easy to accomplish? Why dose god Leave that temtation in front of him. In the fact of his father’s murder, Hamlet is obsessed with the idea of death, and over the course of the play he considers death from a great many perspectives. He contiues to observe death, like the skulls in the grave yard in Act 5, and explains outlook on the subject. |
