Hamlet Response Journal Act 1 Scene 1-5


   1.      During the Act 1, scene 1 the ghost appear and it makes a scary environment. It makes us feel what will happen next? During the rest of the scene, the play was good and interesting. Problem starts to come in and show what is happening during that time. William Shakespeare makes a good introduction to the play. It makes us want to continue watching to see what will happen next after the uncle became the king. How will he take revenge?  Hamlet would surely felt bad and depressed about her mother remarries with his uncle.

   2.    A. When someone is our family is going to learn or go faraway. Their parents must say something before their son left. Same goes here; Polonius speak to his son, Laertes before his leaving. He told him to take care of himself.

B. In the castle or in big house, when someone wants to take over the king or head of the house. Especially brother and sisters, they would probably kill without thinking. So that the treasures and stuff will be theirs. They will gain power in controlling over the country or the house.

C. In the state of a child, every child couldn’t accept when their parents separate or being killed. The child would feel sad and depressed about the position in their family. The child would be confused and don’t understand what is their parents doing? Especially when the mother marries a new guy after divorce. It is hard to understand.

   3.     During the ghost appear to Hamlet, it was interesting. It makes us want to know what will the ghost say about? Is the ghost King Hamlet? In scene 5, the ghost appears and talks to Hamlet. The ghost appears to tell Hamlet who killed King Hamlet and ask to take revenge. The ghost appear to tell Hamlet how much King Hamlet need to suffer from the leperous distilment that was pour into the ears. How terrible it was. The phrases that Shakespeare used are quite confusing, but it goes with the text and the play.

  4.      The language causes problem, because of it old language. It is hard to connect the story together and sometimes the vocabulary that is being used there is too hard to figure it out. The scene and events is clear and understandable. The play is interesting and fun. The old English is a nice language for us to learn and understand about it. So that when we watch a play it will be more fun. I want to know that, how did he face the problem with his uncle and act like nothing happens?
