The internal and external struggle within a person creates changes. The willingness to
make choices gives the individuals an opportunity to build a character or personality for
themselves. In the play, Hamlet, by William Shakespeare the protagonist is in a constant battle
between his internal and external situations. This becomes problematic for Hamlet because
humanity has failed him. He questions human's existence from good to evil and for life or death.
Hamlet and other characters in the play face many overwhelming decisions and are in a
continuous conflict with humanity.

Revenge has formed
Hamlet from doing obscure actions with other characters in the play. That led on to many
misleading assumptions about his actions and emotions. When he approached Orphelia, he
looked wild and crazy. Orphelia’s father, Polonius believed Hamlet was in love with Orphelia
but it wasn’t true. The internal struggle Hamlet faced created a change within his personality
which was insanity.
Claudius encounters a dilemma between reality and deception. When Claudius becomes
the King of Denmark and marries his brother’s wife. He shows remorse for his brother’s death.
In reality, he killed his own brother. He speaks to Prince Hamlet about the mourning of his
father, “But you must know your father lost a father, that father lost, lost his, and the survivor

many internal and external issues that created many dilemmas and difficult choices.
Humanity presents itself throughout the play and creates many conflicts within the
characters. Hamlet discusses about life and death, “O, that this too too sullied flesh would melt,
Thaw, and resolve itself into a dew, Or that the Everlasting had not fixedHis canon 'gainst self-
slaughter! O God, God, …. That grows to seed. Things rank and gross in nature possess it
merely” (1.2.129). Everything around him is immoral and Hamlet wants to take his life but he
can’t. It’s a sin. This becomes a major conflict for him because he questions humanity. Another
example is when good versus evil occurs and Hamlet has to choose. When Claudius murders
King Hamlet he commits an evil deed but when Prince Hamlet plots his revenge to kill Claudius
it’s justifiable to be morally good. And by killing Claudius, Hamlet is reestablishing proper
stability in Denmark. Yet, the irony that Hamlet stabbed and killed Polonius makes him morally
evil because he committed a sin. Humanity presents itself in many conflicting ways. It made it
