Hamlet-Not Your Two Dimensional Kind of Guy.
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) It has been suggested, that the play
Hamlet is primarily a tragedy because Hamlet is
not up, to the task assigned to him by the ghost.
He simply is not the medieval two-dimensional
hero who performs acts of revenge blindly." We are
using that thought as a base for discussion of
this Shakespearean play. Bibliography lists 4
sources.

Hamlet/ Intellectual and Moral Impotence
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page research paper that discusses how Shakespeare's Hamlet is such a complicated play that the Danish prince is caught in a quagmire of indecision, powerless to take action because he is not certain of anything. Also, he feels that he has no moral compass to aid in sorting out what he should do. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Hamlet/Claudius' Character
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that offers a detailed character analysis of Claudius. In Shakespeare's Hamlet, the character of Claudius is central to the plot as he is Hamlet's major antagonist. While the other characters in the play are concerned with ideas of justice, revenge and how to weigh these factors against standards of morality, Claudius remains focused squarely on maintaining his power, at all costs. Examination of the play demonstrates that the best word for describing Claudius is "conniving." Unlike his brother who appears to have been a successful warrior and a good king, Claudius' primary skill is the manner in which he can manipulate people through words. No additional sources cited.

Hamlet/Theme of Revenge
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that analyzes what propels Hamlet to action. The writer argues that it is far harder to coldly and rationally enact revenge after the fact than when a misdeed first occurs and the blood runs hot to seek justice, regardless of the consequences. For Hamlet, however, "outrageous fortune" has conspired to present him with the task of revenge, but within a context when Hamlet is well aware of all consequences and does not have the heat of passion to help him with his task. The fact that Hamlet is quagmired in doubt and self-reflection throughout most of the play, and acts only when circumstances ignite his emotions suggests that Shakespeare intended the audience to perceive violence as something that requires an emotional response from a good man. No additional sources cited.

Hamlet/Time is Out of Joint
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that analyzes this metaphor from the end of Act I, Scene 5. The writer argues that Hamlet feels that his universe and everything in it, including time, has been displaced and made alien to him. Sometimes there are life events that are so dramatic-- or traumatic-- that it divides time for that individual from that moment on. Everything that has ever occurred for this individual can be "dated" as either before or after in regards to this event. Such is the case for Hamlet, who has been confronted by a string of events that have undermined his basic assumptions about life and it is this realization to which he refers. The events leading up to this line are reviewed and discussed. No additional sources cited.

Hamlet/To be Admired or Despised?
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that argues that Hamlet, the tortured Prince, should be admired. The writer argues that an examination of the play shows that although Hamlet creates his own downfall through his murderous actions, he is basically a good man caught in a mind-boggling situation. His story is tragic precisely because Hamlet is an admirable man who is caught within a web of forces from which he cannot escape. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Hamlet/Use of Satire and Cynicism
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that discusses the Shakespeare's use of satirical, cynical language in Hamlet.

Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Hamlet: Tragic Hero.
[ send me this paper ]

revenge. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Hamlet: A Celebration of Life
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper which illustrates that Shakespeare's
Hamlet was a man, and a play, that argued for the celebration of life and not the misery of
existence. In Hamlet we see a man who is challenging tradition, a tradition that assumed
the life of a man was nothing short of miserable and therefor it was allowable for mankind
to engage in dishonorable conduct. Hamlet challenged that tradition and in essence
celebrated life as he fought for honor. Bibliography lists 6 additional sources.
