1 But two months dead: nay, not so much; not two,
So excellent a King, that was to this
Hyperion to a satyr: so loving to my mother,
That he might not beteem the winds of heaven
5 Visit her face too roughly. Heaven and earth
Must I remember: why she would hang on him,
As if increase of appetite had grown
By what it fed on; and yet within a month!
Let me not think on’t: Frailty thy name is woman.

Yes The student provides a brief summary of the content of the passage. Yes The student provides a critical analysis of the passage. He/she explains why it is important within the overall work. She / He is able to associate this analysis with other events/characters/themes from the play. Yes This fragment corresponds to act 1 of Williams Shakespeare’s tragic drama Hamlet, published during the English Renaissance period. Before this scene we’re shown a conversation between Hamlet, Claudius and Gertrude, who convince him not to depart to Wittenberg. After the soliloquy, Marcellus and Horatio find the young prince anf the latter informs him about how he spotted the wandering spirit of his late father, King Hamlet. This phenomenon seems to be metaphorically consequential to his son’s lament for his mother’s unloyal behaviour. In this passage, Hamlet critics his mother’s lascivious nature when, only two months after his father’s departure, she chooses to engage with his brother, a man of dubious intent, ultimately inferior to the previous king as a man, a husband, a father and a sovereign. The soliloquy tries to express the prince’s evident despise for Gertrude’s ungratefulness, even while she an her preceding husbamd had loved each other an absurd extent. As for the effect this excerpt may have on the entire play, I believe that, to some extent, this would have deepened Hamlet’s thirst for revenge and, most importantly, his abstract detatchment from what he considers to be humans’ inherently dirty nature.
