Notes on Hamlet

Since the beginning of the play things have changed dramatically.  When people first started to think Hamlet was crazy I defended him and blamed his actions on the unfortunate occurrences in his life such as his father dying and his mother remarrying his horrible uncle a month later. When Hamlet found out that his Uncle Claudius was the one who killed his father and wanted revenge I thought it was completely normal especially after reading Beowulf, which is all about avenging those who killed your loved ones.  Now with the resent events such as Hamlet killing Polonius and not even feeling remorse for the guy cause he thinks he deserves it I think Hamlet is not all there. Maybe it was the events in his life that drove him to be this way but I don’t believe he will stop at anything until his uncle is dead.
