Justice bas been Served, Finally and Sloppily.
Fellow bloggers, remember my post about Hamlet being abducted to pirates and returned to Denmark? Well it turns out Rosencrantz and Guildenstern were carrying a letter for Hamlet’s execution, but somehow Hamlet managed to replace the letter with a forged one that called for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern’s execution instead! So now 3 innocent people are dead by Hamlet’s actions, but the one who he originally planned to kill is still alive, or is he? Today Hamlet was given Laertes’ offer to duel which he freely accepted, despite knowing there is a chance he could be murdered. It is quite odd that Hamlet would accept such an offer so easily, considering all the hesitation that he had towards plunging into battle with Claudius. Laertes and Claudius closely followed their plan, bringing a sharpened/poisoned sword to the duel, along with a poisoned cup of wine. What Claudius didn’t anticipate was that Gertrude would drink from the cup! When she did this, Laertes and Hamlet were in the heat of battle, and she dropped dead. In a rough scuffle, both Hamlet and Laertes were cut with the poisoned sword, and Laertes dropped dead! Feeling the effects of the poison, Hamlet managed to get over to the fleeing Claudius and forced him to drink the rest of the poisonous wine. He died shortly later, urging Horatio to tell the story of what happened that day. What catastrophe!
See the battle take place here:
What does the story of Prince Hamlet teach us? Actions and thoughts work best together when
they are used in harmony. The thought must relate to the action, and vice
versa. In association to Hamlet, he is an individual who rarely ever performs
an action that coincides with his thoughts. And what are the resulting
consequences when Hamlet acts in such a manner? Well, Ophelia is driven insane
and kills herself, Hamlet murders his two best friends and his lover’s father,
he is sent to England for execution, abducted by pirates, and his mother dies. It
is evident that Hamlet’s actions almost always contradict his thoughts from the
start to the end of these current events.Had he grown a pair and killed Claudius from the start, Hamlet would probably be alive right now, and so would all the people that died by his hand as he unhurriedly pursued his goal.
