Hamlet intro

Intro:

            Hamlet acts differently when he is with Horatio, with himself, and with almost everyone else. With Horatio, Hamlet’s language is clear: with straightforward wording, and quick, meaningful dialogue. When alone, Hamlet’s diction is mostly clear and displays his thoughts flawlessly. When with others, Hamlet speaks eccentrically, confusing people and leading them to believe that he has gone mad. Hamlet’s thoughts, however, seem to be inverse in quality to both solitary Hamlet and public Hamlet’s language. When alone, Hamlet makes illogical connections that are corrupt and result in misguided actions. In public, his conscious decision to act crazy is a choice. So he has to think about his actions, words, and himself, resulting in him speaking convolutedly but formulating proper thoughts. When with Horatio, Hamlet both thinks clearly, and formulates his thoughts into clear, logical sentences. His father’s death has thrust Hamlet’s solitary self into extreme confusion: only allowing logical thought process when interacting with others, yet denying himself coherent deliberations when isolated.
