Hamlet:
The story starts with Hamlet Jr. off in college, his dad dies unexpectedly, and his mother remarries his Uncle (Dads Brother) after 2 months. This was hard to handle for Hamlet because he came from such a close relationship with his parents that to see his mother remarries that soon devastated him. Hamlet is also in love with a young woman named, Ophelia. She was a weak women but her dad is the right hand man to the king. But they were forbidden to be with each other because Hamlet was from royalty decent and Ophelia was not.

Hear is a small family tree to understand the story better:


Claudius Hamlet – Gertude Polonius
(Uncle) (dead)
Hamlet Jr. Laertes and Ophelia


Fortinbras *Hamlet and Fotinbras were in war and Fortinbras lost and
Died so Fortinbras jr. is out seeking revenge over his land
Fortinbras Jr.


§ The time frame from the story is in December
§ Hamlet is the epitome of a Shakespearian Hero
o Sickness and disease is carried through out the story

Act 1

§ Horatio is Hamlets friend who sees a ghost that appears to resembles Hamlet’s Father

We only read 2 pages so that is all that we really know right now

Homework: Read through Act 1, scene 1-2 by Wednesday
