Hamlet

Hamlet is about a prince named Hamlet whose father once was the king of his country. Until one day while he was sitting in the garden sleep someone poisoned him by pouring something in his ear.  So Hamlet is on a quest to find out who murder his father. He thinks it is his uncle Claudius who married and beds his mother as soon as his father died. He is the brother of the late king Hamlet and he just up’s and marries his mother, and also takes over the thrown as king.  Hamlets mother is Gurtrude. Hamlet is very angry with his mother because she only mourned his father for a month before remarrying his uncle. His mother is very disrespect towards Hamlets feelings about her and his uncle; they kiss in front of him in do other little stuff to get on his nerves. Hamlets best friend Heratio from college is one of the guards so he informs hamlet him and another guard has been seeing a ghost that looks exactly like his father. Hamlets father comes back as a ghost and tells him that his uncle Claudius killed him. This makes Hamlet fierce so Hamlets starts doing little devious thing to get the truth out of Claudius. Hamlets mother is afraid and so is Claudius so they try to send Hamlet away. Claudius was so afraid he sent to massagers along with Hamlet with a note say kill Hamlet, but Hamlet found the note and erase his name and put the to massagers.

  1. Melanie,
    Remember, you cannot simply summarize a plot in your blog. I love that you're tackling Shakespeare. For credit, you need to concentrate on your thoughts/ideas about the story. When did you read it? How did you feel about it? Even though the story is so old, did it resonate with you personally?
