Melancholy HamletHamlet is a melancholy young man who does not appreciate human life; however, he will do whatever it takes to achieve his main goal: getting revenge on Claudius for his father's death. In his seven soliloquies, we learn that Hamlet has become melancholy, violent, and suicidal. There are several cases where these emotions are expressed. His melancholy attitude is very apparent in the second scene of Act I, when he suggests that his mother, in mourning the death of his father, is simply playing the role of a grief-stricken widow, while he is a truly heartbroken son. Another example of his early soliloquy of his melancholic state occurs when he discovers the quick marriage of his mother and uncle, where he finds himself both sad and furious at the fact that his mother could leave so quickly. Hamlet's violent attitude can be attributed to the fact that his father was murdered and he wants revenge. An example of his violent attitude is found in his sixth soliloquy where he sees the king praying in the church. Hamlet feels like he should just kill him in the same case, but then decides not to. Another example of his violent behavior is when he sends Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to their deaths and feels no remorse in doing so. Hamlet's suicidal state can be explained by the fact that he is a confused young man. Throughout the play his father was murdered, his mother remarried almost instantly, he himself went crazy and so he is confused because he has so many negative feelings towards himself and the solution the simplest is suicide. Another example occurs in his fourth monologue when he wonders if suicide would be the best and quickest solution. All of Hamlet's emotions lead him not to commit suicide because he realizes that it would be better to achieve his goal and kill the king so that he can avenge his fathers. death.Hamlet is a melancholy, violent and suicidal character, because of the events that occurred in his life.
