THOUGHTS ON HAMLET (IN PROGRESS)

I think the one thing that has stayed constant throughout the entire play is that this is a story of a young man coping with the death of his father and the immorality of his mother. We see him as insane or manipulative but in actuality, he just confused.

However, as the play evolves, my view of Hamlet changes. I cannot justify his actions later on in the story. I admit that he may be a manipulative, clever, and smart guy but someone who can murder someone in front of his mother and think nothing of it, is not sane.
