It is, perhaps less of a theory of acting as a set of observations on the practice of the art. However at its root is the notion that the purpose of playing is "to hold, as 'twere, the mirror up to nature." Actors who do not seem natural in their acting are not doing it right, and the most grievous fault that Hamlet finds in actors is overdoing it, ("overdone" is a word he uses three times in the speech) bellowing and strutting, sawing the air with their hands and generally out-Heroding Herod. He also warns about the opposite fault, being too tame, but he is less concerned with that problem.
Hamlet constructs a play for the actors that mirrors the death of his father, king hamlet by his uncle, and now current king, claudius (pouring poison in his ear while he slept). Hamlet is still deliberating about avenging his father's death, and wants to see if his uncle will react to seeing the murder plot carried out before his own eyes in the form of a play.
"I'll have these players play something like the death of my father; I'll tent him to the quick; if he but blench, I know my course."
i dont now
Its a great play.
NO! you don't have to wear a HAMLET !! but it would be a good idea to wear a HELMET
Gertrude is the Queen of Denmark and the mother of Hamlet. She has no idea that Claudius killed her son's father. As shown in Act 3 scene 4. This reasoning comes from where Hamlet goes to her room and tells her angrily of what she has done wrong. It is news to her of Claudius being a murder and a villain.
The theme of Hamlet's second soliloquy is his main internal conflict. Hamlet wants revenge fort his father, but dislikes the idea of exacting revenge. Hamlet becomes frenzied and anxious during the second soliloquy, trying to resolve this conflict.

Hamlet loved power, the idea of being King, and the idea of revenge.
Its a great play.

Rosencrantz is (probably only was) a friend of Hamlet. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern (often considered one) spy on Hamlet the whole time for Claudius. They are constantly in between a plot that they have no idea about (Hamlet versus Claudius) and never learn of their real reason for their trip to Denmark. They probably had no idea that they were going to executed either.
It is an artistic failure.
Having a two -house legislature that would choose a president and supreme court justices -apex
It's a revenge tragedy; it's about the idea of revenge. Of course it touches on many more things than that.

Yes it is true. If you have invented something, but someone else claims it was their idea, you can go to court about it.

Hamlet knew it showed the poisoning of a person in the same way the Ghost said his father was killed. Hamlet hopes Claudius will have a strong reaction to seeing that, which will prove Claudius's guilt.
