Laertes and Hamlet both display impulsive reactions when angered.
|
|
Once Laertes discovers his father has been murdered Laertes immediately
|
|
assumes the slayer is Claudius. As a result of Laertes's speculation he
|
|
instinctively moves to avenge Polonius's death. "To hell, allegiance!
|
|
vows, to the blackest devil! Conscience and grace, to the profoundest pit!
|
|
I dare damnation: to this point I stand, that both worlds I give to
|
|
negligence, let come what comes; only I'll be revenged most thoroughly for
|
|
my father." Act 4 Scene 5 lines 128-134 provide insight into Laertes's mind
|
|
displaying his desire for revenge at any cost. In contrast to Laertes
|
|
speculation of his father's killer, Hamlet presumes the individual spying
|
|
on his conversation with Gertrude is Claudius("Nay, I know not: is it the
|
|
King?" Act 3, Scene 4 line 28). Consequently, Hamlet consumed with rage
|
|
automatically thrusts out attempting to kill Claudius, but instead strikes
|
|
Polonius. Hamlet's and Laertes's imprudent actions are incited by fury and
|
|
frustration. Sudden anger prompts both Hamlet and Laertes to act
|
|
spontaneously, giving little thought to the consequences of their actions.
|
|
|
|
Hamlet and Laertes share a different but deep love and concern for
|
|
Ophelia. Before his departure for France Laertes provides lengthy advice
|
|
to Ophelia pertaining to her relationship with Hamlet. Laertes voices his
|
|
concern of Hamlet's true intentions towards Ophelia and advices her to be
|
|
wary of Hamlet's love. Laertes impresses upon Ophelia, Hamlet is a prince
|
|
who most likely will have an arranged marriage. Hamlet's strong love for
|
|
Ophelia withers after she rejects his affinity. Hamlet's extensive love
|
|
for Ophelia resulted in grave suffering for Hamlet once his affection was
|
|
rejected. Hamlet's appearance decays due to the rejection of his love for
|
|
Ophelia("Pale as his shirt, his knees knocking each other" Act 2, Scene 1,
|
|
line 82). The loss of Ophelia's love for Hamlet instigates Polonius into
|
|
believing it has caused Hamlet to revert to antic disposition. Once
|
|
Laertes learns of the death of his sister he is afflicted with sadness. In
|
|
the same way, Hamlet is shocked and enraged over Ophelia's demise. Both
|
|
Hamlet and Laertes are so profoundly distressed at the death of Ophelia
|
|
they jump into her grave and fight each other. Although Hamlet and Laertes
|
|
despised one another, they both loved Ophelia. Hamlet was infatuated with
|
|
Ophelia which was obvious during his constant anguish over her(in her
|
|
rejection of Hamlet, and in her death Hamlet suffered greatly). Laertes
|
|
shared a strong brotherly love for Ophelia which was evident in his advice
|
|
to her. Laertes further displayed his love for Ophelia during her funeral
|
|
were he fought with Hamlet.
|
|
|
|
Hamlet and Laertes are similar in the way they associate with their
|
|
families. Laertes highly respects and loves his father Polonius.
|
|
Similarly, Hamlet holds a great respect for his dead father(Hamlet compares
|
|
his father to a sun god "Hyperion"). After the death of their fathers,
|
|
Hamlet and Laertes strive to seek revenge on the assassins. Hamlet and
|
|
Laertes exhibit domineering attitudes towards females. Laertes gives his
|
|
sister Ophelia guidance on her relationship with Hamlet. In the same way,
|
|
Hamlet is able to persuade Gertrude he is not mad and manipulate her to
|
|
follow his instructions. Hamlet directs his mother to convince Claudius of
|
|
Hamlet's madness. Hamlet is able to make his mother reflect upon her part
|
|
in the death of his father and feel guilt("Thou turn'st mine eyes into my
|
|
very soul, and there I see such black and grained spots as will not leave
|
|
their tinct." Act 3, Scene 4 lines 90-93). Furthermore, Hamlet instructs
|
|
his mother not to sleep with Claudius. The fathers of Laertes and Hamlet
|
|
both attempted to use spies to gain information on their sons(although not
|
|
his real father Claudius was his uncle as well as step-father). Claudius
|
|
employed Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to gather information on Hamlet. In
|
|
comparison, Polonius dispatches Reynaldo to check up on Laertes. Hamlet and
|
|
Laertes share similar aspects within their families.
|
|
|
|
Hamlet and Laertes demonstrate rash behaviour when infuriated. Hamlet
|
|
becomes outraged at the notion of Claudius spying on him which results in
|
|
Hamlet mistakenly killing Polonius. Laertes becomes drastically angered at
|
|
the death of his father and boldly seeks vengeance against Claudius.
|
|
Momentary rage overcomes Laertes and Hamlet which prompts them to act
|
|
spontaneously. Hamlet and Laertes both have a strong love for Ophelia.
|
|
Hamlet's deep love for Ophelia is evident in his reaction to her rejection
|
|
of him. In the same way, Laertes care and affection are revealed by his
|
|
advice to his sister. The families of Laertes and Hamlet contain similar
|
|
attributes. Hamlet and Laertes hold a high admiration for their fathers and
|
|
are willing to even kill the king to enact revenge. Both characters
|
|
exercise a dominating attitude towards females. In conclusion, although
|
|
adversaries, Hamlet and Laertes share several characteristics which make
|
|
them similar.
