Act 1
Scene 1
1. The atmosphere or tension is established trough use of ghost
as the super natural, the mystery, the unknown. A wrong is
known to have accrued or about to happen. This creates
intrigue and suspense.
2. Many changes take place in Horatio's attitude towards the
ghost. At first it is known to us that Horatio does not
believe that the ghost actually exists.
3. The background information we are given about the state of
affairs in Denmark and about the relationship between Denmark
and Norway is that something is wrong in Denmark and that
Denmark and Norway had been in combat.
4. We are introduced to the subject of law and rebellion trough
the introduction of Fortinbras and the battles of Norway and
Denmark. Example:
Horatio "Did say this Fortinbras; who by a sealed compact
Well satisfied by law and heraldry
Did forfeit, with his life all those lands
Through the late King actions of law and rebellion during his
time.
5. We are made aware of the uncertain foundation of human
knowledge in the way we learn that the ghost may be a dream,
or could just be around for some unfinished business. We
also learn that Horatio is a scholar and trusted by Marcellus
and Bernardo. He serves as a reliable witness and conveyor
for Hamlet. Even scholars don't understand the unknown
(ghost).
Scene 2
6. This scene introduces us to the King Claudius, the antagonise.
We know this because Hamlet has bad feelings towards him.
7. The impression that I get of the character of Claudius from
what he says is that he is a man of decisive action and of
command. Same goes for his manner of expression is that he is
courageous, strong minded. He does bad things in order to get
things done for himself. From the attitudes of the characters
I know that Claudius is a powerful man because Leartes asks
his permission to leave for France. Also because he has his
own advisor Polonius.
-2-
8. From Hamlets conversation with Claudius and Gertrude I learn
of Hamlet's character that he is a scholarly man who is a
student at University of Wittenberg. He is in a destructed
state seeing his father's death and also in grief for his
mother quick remarriage.
9. Hamlet's soliloquy. His tone is grievous and angered. He is in a state
of depression. It is produced slowly in throughout the play. He also
revels that he would like to disappear from the earth. He rails
against the sudden death of his father and calls his mother's quick
marriage to his uncle incestuous. I do sympathize in Hamlet because he
is in a state of anxiety , and he is suddenly faced with two problems
he did not expect to occur in his life. He shows his building anger
only because of those events that happen to him.
10. The change that is apparent in Hamlet as he talks to Horatio
is that he is friendly towards him and he is happy to see him,
but he is also hurt when Horatio says he has come to see his
father's funeral. Hamlet shows then that he is very bothered
by the everything that is happening in his life.
Scene 3
11. The impression I get from the characters in the play are very
different:
- Laertes is a man that likes to enjoy himself, and does
not like to keep close ties with his family.
- Polonius is a man of knowledge he is the advisor and
gets a lot attention from everyone because of who he is.
- Ophelia is a sweet loving girl that loves her father
and brother as well as Hamlet.
12. Ophelia is gives a false advice about Hamlet from her father
and brother. They both want her to stay away from Hamlet
because of the way he has been acting. Both men don't think
that Hamlet really loves Ophelia.
13. I agree that the advice that Polonius gives Ophelia is cynical
and selfish because he is just assuming that Hamlet does not
love her.
-3-
Scene 4
14. Hamlet realizes that there can be three different reasons why
a flaw maybe present in a person:
- his is a victim of fate.
- man can develop bad habits that could bring him to his
later downfall.
- Being born in a family like himself. He cannot do
nothing about it.
15. The audience is made to doubt the good intentions of the
ghost. In the way Marcellus and Horatio did, by telling
Hamlet not to follow the ghost.
Scene 5
16. The commands that the ghost gives to Hamlet are:
- revenge the murder (against Claudius)
- Ghost seems to think that Gertrude is innocent but
stupid.
- Ghost think that Hamlet is apt to do the task and
avenge his father's death.
17. The ghost knows that Cloudius is the murder. He thinks that
he is very evil. Ghost seem to think that Gretrude is
innocent but stupid. Ghost does not blame her for all that
happened.
18. When the ghost appears to Hamlet, he is excitable (Hamlet)
Hamlet agrees with the ghost and listen to its words
carefully.
Hamlet acts this way because he is scared and angry.
19. The philosophy of Horatio that Hamlet refers to is the
psychlinesis, the unknown. All of which is unexplained and
mystery. It could exist of happen but not in human knowledge.
20. Hamlet is not going to obey the ghost because he is excitable
at first, then shocked and finally enraged. he wants to seek
revenge. Hamlet does not tell his friends about what the
ghost told him to do.
-4-
ACT II
Scene 1
21. In his conversation with Reynaldo, Polonius is made to seem
less than attractive in the way that Polonius shows himself as
a neddesome character. Polonius tells Reynaldo to locate
other Danes in Paris who would know Laertes and identify
himself as a friend of the family. Reynaldo thinks this
scheme may dishonour Laertes, Polonius expalains that this
inderect method is best. This shows unsavory side of Polonius
character.
22. Ophelia reports to her father telling him what happened to
her. Hamlet apeared in her room. He was holding her. She
found that very strange. She was very suprised that Hamlet
acted this way towords her.
This is typical of Hamlet because we now that he is is putting
his plan to action.
23. Polonius decides to talk to the King about the way Hamlet has
been acting. He explains that Hamlet is mad because of the
"ecstacy of love" that Ophelia was denying to him. Polonius
feels sorry about all that is happening to Hamlet.
Scene 2
24. Claudius wants to spyon Hamlet in order to find out what is
cousing all this madness in Hamlet. Cladius calls Hamlet's
childhood friends (Rosencrantz and Guildenstern) to court to
find out from them how Hamlet thinks and what could be wrong
with him.
Gertrude does not want to entrap Hamlet, but she is conserned
about her son's well being. She goes along with the plan.
25. Machavellianism- the political theory of Machiavelli, the view
that any means however unscrupulous can justificable be used
in achieving political power.
26. Hamlet would usally show the greatest respect because of his
age and his high position in court. Hamlet tells Polonius to
keep Ophelia out of court. Now Polonius is more then
convinced that 'love sickeness' is the couse of Hamlet's
behavior.
I like Hamlet because he shows great respect for Polonius, but
at thesame time he has to work with his madness inorder to
avenge his father's death.
27. Hamlet baits Claudius trough Rosencrantz and Guildenstern in
the way that he assumes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern that has
fooled the king and geen because he is not as mad as they
think he is.
-5-
28. It is suggested that Hamlet is more a poet than a man
of action in the way that when his passion abates, he swiftly
reveals a plan for entrapping Claudius and to establish his
quilt. His method is not that of the heroic Achilles but more
in keeping with Hamlet's schoary character.
29. The "Rogue and Peasant Slave" soliloquy
Hamlet attempts to account for his failure to take revange by
the way that he obays the king ans hasn't confronted him yet
and because he is suffering (grief over fother's deat, mother
incest). Hamlet recognizes the real cause of his failure to
the extent that he asks himself if he is a coward. And also
he compares himself to prostitute in the way that unloads his
unger with words and goes cursing.
Act 3
Scene 1
30. "To be, or not to Be" soliloquy
The altesnatiles open to Hamlet's as far as he can see are
those which every man or woman has to face in times of crisis.
When Hamlet asks " Whether His robler has the mind to suffer,
he is wondering whether it is better to respond passively to
the trials adn tribulations of life, or is it better to take
faceful action and confront probalems - " and by opposing end
them "or is is best to commit suicide. But Hamlet points out
that the problem with suicide is man's fear of oblivion.
31. The "Nummery" scene
Hamlet during the " To be, or not to be" soliloquy shows that
he has a great honlrable mind. Towords Ophelia he was good,
but in this scene he suddenly changes, Hamlet is being
devastingly cruel, even though he feigns madness. He probably
knows tha he has been set up. it is Hamlet's bitterness that
lashes out at to a sunnery.
This behaviour is typical of Hamlet because of feigning
madness, and also he is attacking womanhood. This has been
brought upon him by his mother's marriage, which he calls
incestuous.
32. Evidence of mortal blindness.
Hamlet's behavior towords Ophelia was exaggerated, he could
feign madnes, but he did so regatively and face fully, and he
is being a stereotype. By saying negative words about
womanhood, and when je saysall men are "arrant knaves, belive
none of us".
-6-
33. The tragic emotions of pity and fear are generated in the way
that Ophelia is being really attacked by Hamlet. He love for
him has been crushed. She feels used, because Hamlet tells
her that he has never loved her. When Hamlet is arguing with
her, it seems like he wants to kill her, but yet he over
reacts.
34. We are made aware that Hamle's fall is inevitable because
everyone thinks he is mad and everyone is against him.
The king is ready to take a drustic methods. Polonius gives
his support. Rosencrants and Guildenstern are aiding the king
to spy on Hamlet. Ophelia as well, mainly because she obeys
her father. Gertrude is so innocent that she thinks
everything is being done for Hamlet's own good. At this time
Hamlet has only Horatio to turn to.
Scene 2
35. In this scene Hamlet treats Ophelia much differently, he is a
different Hamlet from the embittered abusive prince who had
verbally attacked her, Hamlet refuses to sit beside his
mother and lies at Ophelia's feet to engage in some bawdy
repartee. Hamlet is also culmer, and little affectious.
36. Basic traits of Hamlet's character leading him awasy from his
goal are:
- Hamlet is given more to philosophizing than to
direct acting. He dwells of his tragic situation.
- Hamlet is ecstatic, but he didn't engage in
immediate action to avenge his father.
- Hamlet gives gives Cloudius time to react in
negative way towords him. As a result in the next
scene the king is planning to send Hamlet to England
to be executed there.
Scene 3
37. Claudius' prayer add new dimansion to his character in the way
that it is clear in his soliloquy that Claudius is to
tornented by a guilty conscince and agonizing over murdering
his brother eg: "It has the primal eldest curse up on,/4
brothers murder!"
As remorseful as he feels Cladius is not prepared to give up
his throne or his queen to redeem himself. He does not do
evil carelessly, but is quite ready to put aside mortality for
necessity. Claudius is quitly bu the is not sorry for what he
has done because of his greed.
-7-
38. This scene is the turning point of important conflict in the
play because Hamlet is ready to take action agaist Claudius,
but doesn't because Cladius is praying. Later in the scen the
action is risen.
39. Theirony is established in this scene in the way that where
finally Hamlet has courage to act in order to avenge his
father's death, he kills Polonius instead of Claudius. It was
accidental, but ironic. Hamlet's comment, "Thus bad begins,
and worse remains behind, is ironic and makes the audience
wonder about the consequences of Polonius death.
40. No, this scene doesn't help to make Gertrude a less
sympathetic character, on the contrary, in this scene Gartrude
is shown to be a weak loyal woman who is trapped between her
love for her son Hamletand her allegiance to her husband and
king Cladius. Hamlet brings to her attantion the guilt that
she did not feel or realize. She still remains a very
sympathetic character in the eyes of the audiance.
ACT 4
Scene 1
41. The villany of Claudiud is emphasized in the way that he lies
to Gertrude his lovely wife by telling her he wants to send
Hamlet away to England for his own good, when in reality it's
becuase he knows that Hamlet intended to kill him not
Polonius, so he decides to get rid of Hamlet (permanently).
Also to get blamed for Polonius' deathhe plans to lie to the
court. Claudius wants to lie to the court because of his
greed. He lies to Gertrude about caring for Hamlet, he is
cold-hearted evil. Gertrude is completly innocent (she
belives that Hamlet is being send to England for help).
42. Hamlet's strange behaviour is this scene does not befit that
of atragic hero. Probably ne acts like this becuase he is
prompted by his contempt for king's spies, Rosencrantc and
Guildenstern. Hamlet edmires Horatio because he is the only
person Hamlet can trust and he is the most loyal frined he
has. Everybody else has betrayed him.
-8-
Scene 3 & 4
43. The "How All Occasions Do Inform Against me" soliloquy
The faults Hamlet finds with reasin as a guide to action are
that when honor is at stake, it is right to act and not
reason, that is the delay to revange. Also cowardly and a
waste of time. He waws that he will stop wasting time, and
revange his father's death at last.
By honor he means the honor of his royal family accept
Cloudius since he has decived everyone.
This part of the play is very important because Hamlet finally
decides to act not just speak about revange of his father's
murder.
Scene 5
44. Ophelia's madness causes much grif, everyone pities her,
including the audiance, she was an innocent character, sweet
beautiful, gentle, intelligent and direct. She was a loveable
character. Showed great love for her father Polonius.
45. Both want revange and are serious about it. Both plan, but
Laertes is ready to take action immediately. Both men are
honest, but Leartes is much more corageous. Leartes shows
that he is brave. He is much more admilrable becuase there is
no 'ifs' or 'buts' about it. He just wants to avange is
father's and sister's death. We can see that Leartes is ready
to take the action right from the start where Hamlet was been
delaying the whole thing troughout the palay.
Scene 6
46. Hamlet writes the letter to Claudius to make him angry and to
shoe he has eluded his plans. Also, to show he is ready to
take action and is ready to seek revange.
Scene 7
47. We get impression that the forces of destruction are mounting
against Hamlet in the wasy that Ophelia is dead and Leartes is
full of rage. The king has plotted to kill Hamlet this timeso
he is ready to set up a facing match with Hamlet and Leartes.
Leartes sword is going to have a poisined tip. If that will
fail he will have a cup of posion wine to drink.
48. From Gretrudes's tale and from her manner of telling it we
learn that Gertrude feels sorry but explains the whole story
in depth.
-9-
ACT 5
Scene 1
49. The extened use of humor at the begining of this scene causes
comic relief. The dramatic scenes that just passed are being
stopped, for a while. It is very effective.
50. We know Hamlet has found humility, compassion, and patience
becuase he is straight; he gets attacked by Leartes he says
that he won't be rash, he admitts that he loved Ophelia more
then anyone. He says that he is ready to take the stand and
leave his past behind.
51. Hamlet fights with Leartes because of self-defence. Hamlet
arrives on the scene and Leartes attecks him. Hamlet defends
himself.
Secne 2
52. This scene suggests that Hamlet has found his moral bearing in
the way that from the start he is decisive and clever in his
actions. His hatred is focused on Claudius. Horatio warns
Hamlet about the possible disaster, but Hamlet does not care,
he is not scared of death any longer.
53. I think that Shakespeare is suggesting that the hand of
Providence is at work in a way because the king's plan does
not got well. The qeen gets posioned instead of Hamlet.
Leartes dies quicker than Hamlet.
54. Hamlet shows a scene of responsibility and a concern for the
world, and for its people at the end of his life when Horatio
also wants to take his ownlife but Hamlet tells him his
purpose is clearly to stay behind and report this tragedy to
the world.
