When Hamlet discovers that Polonius and the King are hiding nearby he explodes in a fit of rage, violently attacking her verbally and physically almost like a mad person would. This goes to show that it is all an act. Hamlet is distressed and hysterical, but he still is able to plan and evaluate his situation while still in control of himself, a thing a madman
Hamlet- Soliloquy Assignment Hamlet has many emotional soliloquies in Shakespeare’s Hamlet, which include him reflecting on his many life troubles, contemplating suicide, and making plans for revenge. Hamlet’s Act II Scene II soliloquy, which is a lengthy one, is broken down into four main thoughts; the first being how upset Hamlet is over the Player’s ability to get into the role of seeking fictional revenge with no emotional investment in a play, whereas he is a “John-a-dreams” who has made no real plans for revenge. This leads to the second main idea: Hamlet is chastising himself for procrastinating avenging his father’s death. At this point his is mopey and whiney about his lack of drive to accomplish his task. Hamlet increasingly gets angrier and angrier with himself as he keeps talking, and his anger turns to Claudius.
Shakespeare presents relationships in many different manners in Hamlet, whether they are positive or negative or if they are close or not. As Hamlet seeks for revenge for his father, the play had showed us no admirable human relationships. In the play, the failure of the relationships between Hamlet and Ophelia, Ophelia and Polonius, and Hamlet and his two friends Rosencrantz and Guildenstern had demonstrated the most unworthy relationships between lovers, families, and friends. Family ties between characters such as Hamlet and Gertrude are often unstable, mainly due to Gertrude marrying Claudius after Old Hamlet’s death leading Hamlet to become even more traumatized. Some family ties however, are shown in a more pleasant light; the sibling bond between Laertes and Ophelia shows how family members get along and rely on each other to hold on; when Ophelia drowned in the stream, Laertes started to fall apart, even leaping onto Ophelia’s coffin while she was being lowered into the grave.
Down with the Montagues!”(Page 11). Both groups are constantly hostile to each other, and continue fighting simply because it is all they have ever known. But conflict occurs when the rules are broken between this ongoing feud when two star-crossed lovers finally meet. Romeo shares a bond with his best friend Benvolio, a nephew to Montague and a cousin and friend to Romeo. Benvolio attempts to stop the fight between the servants at the beginning of the play.
In reaction to this disappointment Lear disowns Cordelia and gives her sisters, her share of the land. Also, because of this decision this causes Lear to go through many trials and tribulations with his legitimate daughters, who are now using their new power against him. The second plot is focused on Gloucester, who is tricked by his son Edmund, who is illegitimate, to turn on his legitimate son Edgar, which leads to Edmund receiving his title and his being exiled. While in exile, he is reunited, unknowingly with his son Edgar, who has taken one of his many disguises. In the end, both plots end with the tragic deaths of all the main characters excluding Edgar, who becomes the King and Albany.
C.Romeo and Juliet fall dearly in love, but the fighting of the two families keeps them apart. II.Philosophically, the youth and the aged are different. A.There is a distinct difference between the youth and the aged. B.The older prefer violence and want to end the feud between the Capulets and Montagues with bloodshed. C.The youth just want the war done and over, they don't care.
However, this is instantly contradicted by the use of vocabulary such as ‘ancient’ grudge and ‘new mutiny’. This shows us that the feud between two very similar families affects the rest of the play. He does this to give a little insight to the play. However, in a way he ruins the play right from the start. He speaks of how only the deaths of two star crossed lovers will break the violence, although it is said in a way that will not be noticed by those viewing the play for the first time.
For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.” Meeting Juliet makes him instantaneously forget about Rosaline and never think about her again. The second reason, is that the fighting between the Montagues and Capulets becomes exaggerated when Tybalt discovers Romeo is at the Capulet’s ball. Tybalt is furious at Romeo’s gatecrashing and requests not only that Romeo and his friends be thrown out, but also that the Capulet’s take revenge for the fact that he had the nerve to come to the party. In this act, the audience has a bad feeling about the play, as in the scene before this one, Romeo says “Shall bitterly begin this fearful date With this night’s revels, and expire the term Of a despisèd life closed in my breast By some vile forfeit of untimely death.” Which means, “this party tonight will be the start of something bad, something that will end with my own death” Act 1 Scene 5 begins with some serving men, who are excited for the feast, because after they’re finished working they can enjoy the festivities with their lady friends. Capulet is in an extremely good mood at the beginning of the scene when he is reminiscing with his cousin about how long it had be since the two of them had been to a masque.
As the play goes on, Macbeth slowly looses his morality as he strives for more control whilst Lady Macbeth steps into a frantic stage of guilt. After killing the king, Macbeth starts to plot other evil undertakings as he becomes nervous that someone will take away his power. At one point he goes from wanting to needing the sovereignty, which makes him loose sight of his integrity. As Macbeth begins to immorally act in order to achieve what he hungers, the line between good and evil starts to fade. “I am in blood / Stepp’d in so far, that, should I wade no more, / Returning were as tedious as go o’er.” (3.4.136-138) In this quote, Macbeth is telling himself that because he has stepped into evil so deeply, it will be hard to go back to morallity because he will never be able to rid of this guilt brought onto him.
This prompts Oberon to play a nasty trick on Titania. Hermia and Lysander, who love each other at the beginning of the play, are affected by Puck’s lack of fair use of the love juice. Helena and Demetrius’ relationship also changes dramatically due to Puck’s interference. Hermia and Helena’s friendly love is marbled with jealousy, and erupts in Act 3, Scene 2. Lysander and Demetrius are constantly ‘warring’ over their love for Hermia or Helena, and do not observe the rules of fair play.
