AUTOBOTS…….UNITE!! (ENG-4UE)

Throughout the play “Hamlet”, one would find it hard to believe that Gertrude had just lost her husband on account of the non-existence of mourning. The play starts off 2 months after the death of old Hamlet, and already Gertrude has found somebody to replace him. It only took 2 months and she’s already found someone. To me this sounds a bit skeptical. I mean, usually one mourns after the loss of a loved one. But if Gertrude was able to replace him that fast, and skip all the mourning, then how faithful could she have been? Perhaps Gertrude was unfaithful to old Hamlet and therefore he needed to be taken out of the picture in order for Gertrude and Claudius to be together. Perhaps she wasn’t the perfect queen that old Hamlet thought she was. Perhaps instead of being the Queen of Denmark she was the Queen of Whore-Ville? Or maybe instead of there something being rotten in the state of Denmark, there was something rotten in thy underpants of thy Queen? All jokes aside though, there is much evidence to prove that the Queen did not care for the death of old Hamlet. There is no evidence of her mourning throughout the play. Another piece is that when Hamlet put on that special show for everyone, the Queen didn’t seem bothered by it at all, even the death scene didn’t bother her. You think she would have picked up the hints maybe?
