Things that appear true and honest may be evil or deceitful in reality. Many of the characters within the play hide behind a mask of falseness: Ophelia, Polonius, and Hamlet. Ophelia tells her father of Hamlet. ``No, my good lord, but, as you did command, I did repel his fetters and denied``(I,ii,105-106). Ophelia was in love with Hamlet but she further reveals that due to Polonius’s orders, she has cut off all contact with Hamlet and has refused his letters.

This was the same time period in which he had penned many of his successful tragedies including Othello, Julius Caesar, Macbeth, and King Lear. Many believe that Shakespeare’s one and only son Hamnet Shakespeare’s death in 1596 was the source of his non-stop series of tragedies, but no one knows for sure. To recognize Shakespeare’s exceptional skill of targeting his audience, this essay will focus on the specific soliloquy in Hamlet found in act four, scene four. This final soliloquy commonly known as “How all occasions do inform against me,” can be found from lines 35 to 68 in the specified act and scene. Shakespeare wrote from what he knew, and what he knew came from where he lived and what he witnessed.
When Bertrande went on to sue Arnaud, he discouraged Bertrande to bringing the lawsuit against the rogue imposter as he was convinced that the man Bertrande was accusing was the real Martin. His evidence was that the stranger is Martin and refers to Bertrande’s illness as her “madness” . Bertrande also questioned Martins younger sister about how the new Martin did not resemble his father “in action or in feature” and told the sister that she did not believe this man to be the actual Martin. The sister replied incredulously, “how could you even think so?’. She informed Bertrande to never speak of it again “or to anyone”.
His goal of being with her had come true, but while being out on the town Tom finds out about the affair and things are laid out on the table. An argument starts up between Tom and Gatsby on who Daisy loves with Gatsby saying, “ ‘ Your wife doesn't love you…. She never loved you. She loves me….. She never loved you, do you hear...She only married you because I was poor and she was tired of waiting for me. It was a terrible mistake, but in her heart she never loved anyone except me (137).” As he argues with Tom you can see his defiance to believe that Daisy could love another.
Then at the end, Hamlets says “These tedious old fools” which is calling Polonius directly an old fool without trying to hide it as he did before. In Act 3 Scene 2, Polonius returns to Hamlet to inform him that the Queen is very upset about him and wants
When it comes to trickery for power, Claudius murdered his brother King Hamlet in order to become the new King of Denmark, which also relates to the theory of Marxism and the difference between two classes. King Hamlet for example, represents the higher class in which controls the higher majority of power, while Claudius would represent the lower class, since he was a normal citizen in the state of Denmark before the murder of King Hamlet. Claudius committed the murder to control the Danish throne and had secretly lied about the death of his own brother. Another method of deception used by Claudius would be the dishonesty for the sake of his own life. After Claudius had realized that Hamlet knows he committed the murder of his father, he decides to send Hamlet to England to his death, and orders Guildenstern and Rosencrantz to follow Hamlet, and he uses the method of deception by lying to the two courtiers by telling them that he is sending Hamlet away due to his madness and weird behaviour, but Claudius is really afraid for others to find the truth behind King Hamlet’s death.
This could be because of the fact that once Ophelia had received the letter, she gave it to her father. Hamlet did not trust Polonius, and from that moment on, Hamlet knew that he had to hide his love for Ophelia and act mad to protect her. One piece of evidence that also shows Hamlet’s love for Ophelia is when he confesses his love for her when he tells her: I did love you. (3.1.125) Hamlet says he loves her, but then goes on to say that he never loved her. This could be because he knows that he and Ophelia are being watched.
Albany suffers from the classic case of blindness. Albany is blinded by love. Although Albany disagrees with Gonerils cruel actions towards her father, he only half-heartedly argues his case against her. Albanys fear of upsetting Goneril is exemplified in his response to her demand that Lear dispose of his knights. ’cannot be so partial, Goneril, / To the great love I bear you (I, iv, 309-310).
