Fichas del conjunto (2)
- 1Lines 1 + 16 (Weakness of a women)Gertrude - "I will not speak with her."
"Let her come in."
*The character of Gertrude is displayed as weak and submissive to males throughout the play.
*Usual in the Shakespearean times, as women were seen as less powerful and not able to have the same control over their lives as men do.
*This is shown through the use of juxtaposition - a man's convincing can completely change the way she thinks. - 2Lines 116-117 (Laertes' anger)Laertes - "O thou vile King, Give me my father."
*Laertes' character contrasts highly against Hamlet, as he does not think through his plans like Hamlet and takes immediate action (Hamlet has taken the whole play to face his uncle and play out his revenge plan.
*Some may say that this presents Laertes as too spontaneous and doesn't think clearly - fatal flaw.
