Hamlet Remix!

Act 3. sc. 1

Hamlet  -  Get thee <to> a nunnery. Why wouldst thou be a breeder of sinners? I am myself indifferent honest, but yet I could accuse me of such things that it were better my mother had not borne me: I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offenses at my beck than I have thoughts to put them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in. What should such fellows as I do crawling between earth and heaven? We are arrant knaves <all;> believe none of us. Go thy ways to a nunnery. Where's your father?


This has to be one of my favorite scenes so far. I find it very humors how Hamlet just straight out tells Ophelia that she shouldn't even bother with him, in fact it is just best if she goes to a convent rather than produce. Hamlet is still trying to find who he is as a person, and being in the situation he is put it, it makes the journey ten times harder. He is in a sea of confusion. dealing with love, his mothers actions, and the killer of his father.

  1. He was a n=bit of a jerk in this scene. Your right, he was quite blunt with his feelings. I like your picture :)

  2. I very much agree with you, Hamlet seems to be struggling with everything. Although I didn't think it was humerus as I read it when you point it out it kind of is.

  6. I don’t really like this scene.It is interesting but I don’t like how he broke Ophelia’s heart. I felt really bad for Ophelia; she is the one who struggles between her father and lover. But all the sudden, she found out that Hamlet doesn't felt the same way as she did.
