In Act 1, Scene 2 of Shakespeare's "Hamlet," Hamlet's long speech serves to establish his melancholy mood and reveal his deep sense of grief and despair over his father's death. It also introduces themes of appearance versus reality, as Hamlet expresses his distrust of the world around him following his father's untimely passing. Furthermore, the speech lays the foundation for Hamlet's internal struggle and sets up his introspective and contemplative character.
In Act 1, Scene 2 of Hamlet, King Hamlet has been dead for two months. This information is revealed by Horatio, who mentions that King Hamlet's death occurred two months prior to the events of the play.
a long speech
Yes. The first e in "scene" is a long vocal.
Presumably you mean his "Queen Mab" speech in Act 4, which is about dreams, and how different people have dreams. It is a long speech with curiously little point to it. As Romeo says, "Thou talk'st of nothing."
The will usually dictate how long a speech should be.
The name for a long impassioned speech is a "harangue."
The only Queen described in Romeo and Juliet is Queen Mab, the "fairies' midwife", described by Mercutio in a very long speech in Act 1 Scene 4.
The speech was right around 16 minutes long.
Juliet has about 12 speeches in this scene, from one-liners like "Oh God! Did Romeo's hand shed Tybalt's blood?" to a couple that are about 30 lines long.
George Washington had the shortest speech, and was 135 words long.
Just get to the main point of the speech! Nothing more nothing less...It always helps me to time the speech, depending on how long it is. For example my speech is 3 pages long, and it has to be 3-5 minutes. But it is a total of 10 minutes long! To shorten it down, I usually keep on editing the speech until it is the right amount in the specific time limit! Searching for ways to shorten a speech led me to this question! Hope it helps! :) GL
it depends on how long you want it to be.
