- 291: Justice Vs. Rage In Hamlet
- Rage and Justice From the very beginning of Shakespeare's Hamlet, the title character feels anger over his mother's quick transition from mourning her dead husband to marrying his brother. In Hamlet's first soliloquy, he berates the hasty marriage, crying "a beast, that wants discourse of reason, would have mourned longer." When the ghost of his father issues demands that Hamlet avenge his murder, Hamlet's pre-existing anger overwhelms this sacred mission, corrupting it and ultimately rendering it an act of angry indulgence.

- 298: Hamlet
- Hamlet appears to be insane, after Polonius s death, in act IV scene II. There are indications, though, that persuade me to think other wise.
