I'm currently reading Hamlet. Can someone help clarify a few answers for me? All help would be greatly appreciated.
Concerning Act I, Scene V:
1. State the substance of the ghost's revelation to Hamlet.
2. How does Shakespeare emphasize the heinous aspects of the crime?
3. What two specific demands does the ghost make of Hamlet?
4. What evidence is there of Hamlet's highly emotional reactions to the ghost's message?
5. Account for Hamlet's plan to acquire an antic disposition.
6. Account for the apparent contradiction in the following statements:
" Haste me to know that Iw ith wings so swift- As meditation on the thots of lov, May sweep to my revenge."
AND
" The time is out of joint, O cursed spite, That ever I was born to set it right."
Thank you once again for those who help me. :p :)
