Hamlet Proposal

Hamlet’s world view changed, because of the deception, lying and false appearances. It allows him to be struggling with himself. In a way, it’s Hamlet’s job to see though all of this deception and to discover the truth, Hamlet himself must use deception. He affords a lot and also hesitates a lot.

There are three reasons of Hamlet mental changing. The first of all is spying. Claudius and Polonius spying on the dialogue of Hamlet and Ophelia. Polonius spying on the dialogue between Hamlet and Gertrude. Claudius sent R&G to spy on what does Hamlet do.

The second one is surveillance. Hamlet is surveilling Claudius’ expression to the play and he also let Horatio help him to watch and decide whether Claudius is guilty of murder. On the other side, Polonius and Claudius is surveilling Hamlet to decide wether he is real crazy and why.

Finally deception is the one, they not only act on each other, but also themselves. Claudius is a murderer, lier and incapable of thinking politically(easily allow the Norway’s army go inside Denmark), but he cheats himself and he wants to cheat the whole kingdom that he is a good King. Claudius tells people and Hamlet that Hamlet is crazy and he will send Hamlet to England to protect both of them. But he writes a letter and lie to allow the King of England hang a sinner the real who is Hamlet and hires R&G to help kill Hamlet during the trip to England. Claudius hides part of reality to Laertes and ascribes the death of Polonius and Ophelia to Hamlet. He plots a duel with Laertes to kill Hamlet.
