What is the tragedy of Hamlet? What is the cause of the tragedy in Hamlet?

The tragedy of Hamlet lies in the irreconcilable contradiction between the beautiful humanist ideals he harbors to change society and the cruel and powerful reality of society. Hamlet simply wants to realize his ambition to "put things back together", and at the same time wants to use the most righteous means; But he did not really see the reality of society and underestimated the strength of his opponents, thus causing the ultimate tragedy.

This is a tragedy caused by the limitations of humanists like Hamlet in that era, but it is also a tragedy caused by the times, so the tragedy of the play "Ha" is also called a social tragedy.

Hamlet is "a giant in thought and a dwarf in action", and the phrase is supposed to mean that Hamlet is striking multiple blows (father died; The uncle soon married his mother; His father's ghost told the truth), and in the upside-down and chaotic society at that time, he was still able to consciously shoulder the mission of "reorganizing the world" and adhere to his humanist ideals;

At the same time, he is also very wise, such as pretending to be crazy, using "tricks in the plan" to test the king, and using "bag drops" on the way to England to turn himself into a safe place. Therefore, he was an intellectual giant and hero of that era.

HamletThe cause of the tragedy: Hamlet is weak and hesitant by nature, and cannot afford to "reorganize the world" and transform the historical task of society.

That is to say, Hamlet "is called upon to do the impossible, which is not impossible in itself, but impossible for him." As he wanders, wanders, fears, and dilemmas, always recalling the past, he almost loses the goal before him after the most famous man, and can no longer become a happy prince."

Thus, Hamlet's "very weak and melancholy" mind causes him to delay his action on revenge. This view can also be called the personality defect theory.

Afterlife influences

Hamlet is Shakespeare's most famous play, and it is also the earliest, most complex and longest of his four great tragedies. In one of the play's three acts, Hamlet has a monologue, which is popular both in the original and in translation.

Hamlet is known as one of the four great European novels.

One. Since its inception, it has been adapted into stage plays, operas, film and television and other works.

The reason why Hamlet is one of Shakespeare's four great tragedies.

The first is not only the tragic ending at the end of the work, but also the heavy reflection that the work brings to people, the reflection on Hamlet's fate, and the Renaissance at that time.

Reflection on the social context.

The final ending of the protagonist Hamlet is the inevitable trend of the development of the entire era, and his personal sacrifice is also the final ending of the development of the work. In a way, tragedy is not misfortune, but beauty in a sense.

The causes of tragedy in the play Hamlet can be seen from many angles

1.Personality reasons: Hamlet, the protagonist of the trouser play, is indecisive, and his delay and hesitation lead to a series of tragedies for him.

2.Objective reason: Ham's father was killed by his uncle, which provoked revenge and contradictions in the story.

3.Religious reasons: Hamlet is furious when he learns the truth about the king's tragic death from his father's ghost, and says that he will immediately eradicate ** and avenge his father.

However, he deliberately pretended to be crazy in his actual actions, and delayed his actions, especially when the king repented, and missed the great opportunity. This is an indirect cause of the tragedy.

4.Human Causes: Hamlet's perception of life has changed dramatically. He originally believed that man was an angel, the essence of the universe, and the primate of all things, but after a series of tragedies, he became suspicious of human nature.

All of these reasons combine to lead to the tragic ending of the play Hamlet.

The main reasons for the formation of the Hamlet tragedy are as follows:

1.Struggle for power: After the death of Hamlet's father, his uncle Claudius refers to him as "my son", raising the question of the ownership of the power family. The problem becomes even more pronounced when Hamlet learns of the true cause of his father's death.

2.Indecisive character: Hamlet's personality is complex and changeable, after learning the cause of his father's death, although he said that he would immediately avenge his father, but in actual action, he deliberately pretended to be crazy and delayed taking action.

This stool's hesitant personality puts him at a disadvantage in the ensuing struggle.

3.Changes in the perception of human beings: Hamlet originally believed that human beings are incomparably beautiful, but after a series of setbacks, his understanding of life has changed significantly, from a sexual goodist to a sexual evilist. This shift in perception also became the source of his tragedy.

Overall, the formation of the Hamlet tragedy is the result of a combination of factors.

It is the throne, power, and revenge, and the afterlife will not be reborn in the emperor's house, and once you enter the Houmen, it is as deep as the sea.
