1. The gravediggers were there for comic relief and to appeal to the pheasents in the crowd. They fit into the play because they say things that are whitty and wise.
2. Hamlet states that he is king or “Hamlet the Dane.” When you die, everyone is the same so what is the point of committing suicide. Hamlet is sad that Yoric is dead, but he respected him as well as his father.
3. Hamlet is 30 years old. The gravedigger told us, “I have been sexton here, man and boy, thirty years.”
4. Hamlet thinks and plans before he does something about Cladius but Lartes just reacts when it pops into his mind. It adds excitement and shows how Hamlet and Lartes are somewhat alike.
5. Hamlet changed because of the letter he wrote to kill Rosencratz and Guildenstern, he will kill people to protect his country, Denmark.
6. First he states that Claudius killed his dad, then he made his mother mad when he called her a hoar, and when Claudius took the king role away from Hamlet.
7. The concerns are for Hamlets safety, but Hamlet says if it is Gods he will die.
8. Because Hamlet says, “There is a special providence in the fall of a sparrow,” and that means if Hamlet gets stabbed and dies, it is God’s decision if he lies or dies.
9. He still resents Hamlet because of his loss of honor when Hamlet killed his father. Laretes haunts for his father’s death.
10. All of them have different feelings but they think about themselves.
11. Horatio and Fortinbras are the winners because they didn’t get killed.
