Act 3 scene 4

Question 1

Act 3 scene 4

Answer 1

• Gertrude and hamlet in bedroom
• Hamlet kills polonius
  [enter ghost] - mid speech. Power of ghost, interrupting hamlet. He becomes the one pleading - he losses all that anger ‘save me’. Belief in the ghosts power - young. - ironic talking about heaven as hes literally just killed someone.
  Ghost (whos in purgatry) not good enough for heaven. Act 1 authentic ghost (everyone can see it and interact with it) Act 3 delusion? ‘Allas hes mad’ - gertrude cant see the ghost.
• hamlet tells her he knows she hired r&g to spy
  ‘O what a rash & bloody deed this is’
