Well If you are desperate need.. here are some tid bits to help you out.
The situation with Opheila and her father Polonius.. it is a troubled one.. She feels duty to him
but is yet in love with Hamlet to which her father deems as crazy. I think that in part caused her to
kill herself (but that is even disputed).Let me see any more.. His whole solioquy is a cry for help whetere or not to live. I mean.. "to be or not to be" He has to deiced
whether he lives to see the next day. What the heck that in my opinion is a tragedy. He has to think about living... To lose faith in
life? and in God and in nature and in love and in the belief that the truth will emerge. That is a a tragedy. "to suffer the slings and arrows of out
ragous fortune... To die to sleep perchance to dream.. ay that is the rub" That line is the epitome of the his struggle.Well I hope that this helps you..... HAmlet is the best of the tragedies of Billy.. so please use this if you can... I hope that I
opened your eyes to Hamlet.Teresa
