Psychological approach to Hamlet
In the play Hamlet, written by Shakespeare, a tragic play/story of a young prince of Denmark. The best way to critically analyze the literature is to approach it in a psychological critic mindset. Hamlets actions are so bizarre he has everyone in the kingdom worried. There are many questions Hamlet brings when using a psychological approach. One of the biggest questions is why does one man choose to carryout revenge, how a lust for power can bend ones own flesh and blood? Another question is whether or not Hamlet is indeed crazy? If so, how would friendship function? Does he have a true friend? If so, who? Does he exhibit the behavior of a real friend?
One big question that allows psychological analysis of this plot is why hamlet does not act upon his fathers revenge like he promised he would?
