How guilty is Hamlet's mother?

She feels very guilty and she tells Hamlet so. Hamlet asked her to not reveal that he is not really crazy. She then protects Hamlet for the murder of Polonius by telling the king that Hamlet has gone mad. However, it is clear that Gertrude is not as guilty as you might think. She was not aware of the fact that Claudius had killed her first husband for her until Hamlet says "Almost as bad, dear mother, as to kill a king and marry with his brother." "To kill a king?" she asks. She had no idea. Nevertheless she was the motive, or part of the motive for the crime, and this makes her feel guilty.


What is Hamlets plan?

Hamlet's plan is to stage a play which will re-enact the murder of his father and then to discover whether Claudius is guilty of the murder or not based on his reaction to the play.

In Hamlet the universal conflict lies with Hamlet and who?

His Mother - I think Dr. Freud answered this. In my opinion its Him and Claudius because the entire time he trys to find a way to blame claudius.. but he himself is to scared to kill claudius until he finds out he is guilty, but he never kills him because he was praying in the church when he had his opportunity.

You feel guilty when you get what you want because you may think you don't deserve it or their are people that need whatever you got more than you do. You may also feel guilty because you were greedy in getting it. There's a more scientific reason, but that's why I feel guilty most of the time. (excluding when I've done something wrong☺)
