Hamlet Act one essay

People may have different personalities. Hamlet is not that king of person who will express his feeling in front of everybody. He knows it is inappropriate to do this in front of his fatehr and mother because it will just simply be useless and idiotic.

After Hamlet's father's death, claudius quickly takes the throne, without the consent of Hamlet. Queen, Gertrude, did so and followed with the new king. Hamlet had so much emotion going on in his body without anybody's realization. Although Horatio and others stand on his side, he still had no power to take over the throne and continued his grief toward his dead father.

At that time, Hamlet was still flirting with Ophelia, Polonius's daughter. However, both Polonius and Laertes do not permit this relationship. Hamlet cannot be friends and partner with them beacause their opposition toward this. Hamlet did not stop the affair with Ophelia, and he knew that no one can help him.

Also, Hamlet was not that brave and shocked for what was happened. He knew the behavior of Claudius and Gertrude can not be forgived, however if he stands up and hold opposition, he will be killed as well. The shocking of this event made him just keep silence without speaking one sentence.

Conclusively, Hamlet is the poor prince who just lost his father, mother, the throne, and the whole kingdom because the take-over of his uncle. With so many complicated feelings about his destiny choose to stay in silent and seek for revenge in the future.
