Paper Summary:
Madness, one of the many themes in "Hamlet", affects the outcome of this particular Shakespearean play so much that all the major characters die during the final act. The paper examines how the theme of insanity is interwoven through the play and how it affects all the characters.From the Paper:
"Admirers of Hamlet tend to discount this major fault. Shakespeare however, gives Hamlet's quest for revenge prominence, and shows it as a major sickness of the Prince's soul. For Hamlet promises the ghost, "And thy commands all anon shall live, within the book and volume of my brain." Such an oath is mind shattering. If kept, it can only lead to derangement."More papers on Insanity in "Hamlet":
