Is Hamlet’s Madness Real or Feigned? || Shakespeare || Literature || Elizabethan Play

Hamlet’s behavior strikes the audience as abnormal on several occasions. For example, Hamlet seems mad when he appears before Ophelia in disordered clothes. He behaves as if he has been loosed out of hell, to speak of horror. Hamlet subsequently kills Polonius, and the harsh language he uses with Ophelia in the nunnery scene confirms that Hamlet has gone mad. The video shows whether the madness of Hamlet was real or feigned.
