Then with doubt and fear he locks himself up inside this dark room, filled with darkness and hopelessness in the middle of the night and while he’s alone by himself, he hears the raven who I thinks is his subconscious also death. He wants the raven to deliver Lenore to him or show him to her, but the raven only mocks him seems like and shows’ him how no one waits for you after death, you are all by yourself.

Hamlet’s Evolution On Perception Of Death “Hamlet” By William Shakespeare During the Elizabethan era in England, mortality was very prevalent and ordinary compared to the present times. Since it was highly widespread , death’s complications and issues became analysed and theorized particularly with religious factors. Various reasons influence how one may perceive fatality. In William Shakespeare’s play, “Hamlet”, mortality encompasses Hamlet, forcing him to reflect on death numerous times and to philosophize his life. Hamlet begins by contemplating suicide, questioning the metaphysics of the after-life, later proclaiming that death is the greatest equalizer and then realizes one cannot escape their inevitable fate.

Is it noble to put up with the struggles and the difficulties in life or simply ending them all at once by dying? His questions are left to be answered by himself.
