Foreshadowing in Hamlet
An example of foreshadowing is when Hamlet's father came to him as a ghost to inform him of his murder, this caused a rage within Hamlet that foreshadows his revenge. This revenge led to the death of his uncle, mother, and himself. It also created Hamlet's wild behavior, and caused him possibly to become insane.. Another example is Hamlet's sudden unusual behavior toward Ophelia, which foreshadows a fatal outcome for the two lovers. His treatment toward Ophelia was so horrible and
But if you look deeper into the two women, it is as if they felt they couldn't survive without a man in their lives. Another worthy quote is in (II, II) When Hamlet says, "A dream is nothing but a shadow. Her need for the love of a man destroyed her son and everyone around him. Whereas, Gertrude felt she needed the love of Hamlet's Uncle Claudius . devastating that it caused her great pain. The most obvious between Gertrude and Ophelia is their love for Hamlet. Your dreams are merely a shadow in your mind. In the case of Hamlet, many people died a tragic death. Which leads the reader (audience) to believe that someone is going to die. I also liked the quote by Marcellus "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark. After the death of her father she went crazy and ended up killing (drowning) herself. Ophelia needed the love of Hamlet and her father. " I feel that Shakespeare is saying that sometimes it's hard to determine the difference between what is real and not real.
