Act III.3

Shakespear shows an agressive Hamlet in Act III. Hamlet is put through many rough situations and he is alone in this one. In the play it is shown that he wants to make justice with his father`s death: "Mother, you have my father much offended" (III.4.13). Eventhough Gertrude is his mother he is going against her will and confronts he with what he does not agree. Revenge is something that Hamlet wants a lot in this moment and he is almost sure that Gerturude and Claudius had to do with his father`s death. When he is shouting at his mother he accidentally kills Polonius: "How now, a rat? Dead for a ducat, dead."(III.4.29). Shakespear portrays here an agressive Hamlet that the only thing he thinks about is revenge and kiling.

This situation can happen today in different aspects. For example when someone is blamed for something they have not done. In many cases they pay for the mistakes of others like it happened to Polonius. It is not fair and I consider that people should think before acting. Still we can see that Hamlet did not meant to kill Plonius but he did and it was an accident. Accidents happen but there are ways to prevent it and one of thoes ways is think before acting.
