Revenge and Social Corruption in Hamlet (1 Viewer)

[acevipa]

What sort of questions can you raise in your essay of Hamlet regarding social corruption and revenge and from that, develop your own person perspective of those issues.

For example, for madness, I've developed my own opinion of "whether Hamlet is mad or not" and have justified that in my essay.

Revenge - how is his revenge justified - is it instinctively based (reacting to the beastly, base human emotions) or is there a rational mindset behind Hamlet? Depending on the way you answer: Is Hamlet a true renaissance philosopher?

Social corruption - In the denouement, is there a sense that social corruption has ben eradicated and if so what was the source of corruption - Hamlet, Claudius or just the upper echelons of society?
