The Performance Utterance in Hamlet


The Performance Utterance in Hamlet text is located here.

  • The play is about a man trying to figure out what is real and what isn't
  • The central problem of the play is that people's feelings are represented in a non-realistic way
  • Polonius has a narrow vision of madness and that hurts him in the play
  • Hamlet is a modern man while Polonius is a pre-modern man 
  • Claudius is incapable of controlling his definition of himself 
  • Hamlet's evolution is towards faith, closure and acceptance
