Hamlet Post 2

In Act two of Hamlet many of the characters have developed. At first I disliked the character of King Claudius but now after reading Act Two his character has grown on me. Claudius is worried about Hamlet’s well being because he thinks that he is going crazy and that something is wrong with him. He is more concerned with Hamlet than ruling is country, and that can be a very bad thing. Also Hamlet is beginning to not do what he is supposed to do. He is more worried about defeating Claudius than the well being of his country, family, and friends. There is also the play that Hamlet puts on in Act Two in order to get a rise out of King Claudius. This is Hamlet’s way of expressing how he feels, and making his feelings known to Claudius and his mother.
