The king dies recently
Hamlets dad was king, his mom married claims which was Hamet's dads brother
Painfully Clausdius and Hamlet's mom move on to rile the kingdom
They are at the gathering where Claudius introduces Hamlet
Hamlet says " A little more than kin, and less than kind."
Claudius asks Hamlet why he is still grieving
Hamlet denies Claudius assumption
Hamlet says grieving is just rituals
He doesn't show his emotion on his face
He is saying you can't tell how someone is feeling on the outside, hiding his emotions, and implicating the people who are pretending to be mourning
Starts by saying yes you are sweet Hamlet, then goes to say don't go to school, snap out of it
King makes Hamlet out to look like he is unmanly
King wants to keep friends close and enemies closer
Hamlet says he will try to stay in the place
First time get to see into protagonists mind, Hamlet
Usually direct or indirect characterization, not straight from character and his mind
Hamlet speech
Trying to say he doesn't want to live, wish I didn't have to see this, just leave
He wished suicide wasn't a sin, kill self that he was so angry
Anger towards Claudius rather than self
Was bashing on her mom, had no right to cry, sleep with Claudius.
If she really felt her husbands love and loved him back, then he would have mourned longer
Hamlet went form playing parents to baring sole in conversation
In his conversation with horatio and Marcellus, like detective, asks about details, intelligent savvy person.
Don't stop him from having logical conversations.
Mature person
Starts putting things together
