The Killing of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern :: essays research papers

The putt to death of Rosencrantz and GuildensternHamlets own Philosophic view.     In terms of Hamlets own philosophic view, the violent death of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern is very out-of-character. Hamlet is an intellectual, and therefore believes that killing is non a needful solution (this could also relate to why he hesitates so unyielding at killing Claudius). He does this more out of anger and avenge than out of his own will and good judgement. As somewhat of a justification he says,"Ere I could make a prologue to my brains,They had begun the play-",proving that, given period to think about his actions, he probably would not wealthy person through with(p) it.Hamlets goal of Revenge     As far as his goals of revenge go yes this was an act of personal vengeance for Hamlet, but it did nothing to aid in his ordered revenge of his fathers death. Although somewhat justifiable, as the two were conspiring with the king against him, their deaths were not very practical. It is, in fact, completely plausible that Rosencrantz and Guildenstern had no idea of the limit of the letters they carried, thus nullifying the whole point of the revenge put upon them, and putting the deaths of two innocents on Hamlets head. If they did know what the letters contained, however, it was one of Hamlets high points in the play. He actually accomplishes something instead of analyzing it to death, displaying the kind of action he should have taken towards killing Claudius.In Terms of Todays Moral Standards     Crimes of passion are the most common crimes that result in death and Hamlets actions displayed just that. He was anger driven, and blind to reason, reacting emotionally, without thinking too much about the block up results or circumstances of his deed.
