What is Laertes request of the king?

Laertes tells King Claudius that he wants to return to France, a place he left to attend the king's coronation. He had been attending school there and, upon hearing of King Hamlet's death immediately departed. The king grants his permission, as he's sure Laerte's father Polonius won't mind him taking the liberty of doing so.


Why is the King worried about Laertes return?

Laertes, in a parallel revenge, seeks revenge against Hamlet for killing his father, Polonius, and the early death of his sister Ophelia. Hamlet does die, but not before Laertes, so Laertes never does get his revenge against Hamlet


What five major troubles does Claudius list that must be simultaneously dealt with?

1. The death of Polonius 2. Hamlet's madness and exile 3. Popular unrest 4. Ophelia's madness 5. Laertes' return from France and attempt to take over the kingdom.


What do Laertes and Polonius advise Ophelia to do?

In Act 1 Scene 3 of Hamlet, both Laertes and Polonius advice Ophelia to stop seeing Hamlet in a romantic way. Laertes, as Ophelia's brother, gives the explanation that Hamlet, as heir to the throne of Denmark, must ultimately do what benefits the country. That means that though he may love Ophelia now, he will never be able to marry her because she is not of royal blood so it would not reflect well on the country, and because Denmark must come first, their relationship is doomed to end. Laertes says that Hamlet's affections for Ophelia are essentially flirtation and are going nowhere.Polonius, Ophelia's father, gives the same advice for a different reason. He basically says that Hamlet is a young guy and offers her affection because he wants her, not because he loves her. He advises that Ophelia value herself more highly than Hamlet will, and says she should stop seeing him because what she thinks is love is simply lust.Stay away from Hamlet. Do not be childish. This is not love between you and Hamlet, it is called lust.

Why does Hamlet attack Laertes?

"Osric did not "get" Hamlet and Laertes to fight. He stood by as a referee in the duel between the two adversaries. He called out the "hits". They duelled because Laertes believed that Hamlet was responsible for the death of his sister Ophelia and wished to avenge it. This belief had been fostered by Claudius who saw a way of having Hamlet killed as he knew that Claudius had murdered his - Hamlet's - father." This is almost correct. Indeed Osric was not the cause of Hamlet and Laertes duel, the King was the one who came up with this idea because he found it the easiest way to have Hamlet killed without the suspect of foul play. But Laertes agreed to the duel not only because he believed Hamlet's madness caused Ophelia to also go mad ultimately killing her, he also dueled because of Hamlet's cold blooded murder of his father Polonius...just wanted to add that Polonius had two reasons for wanting to duel Hamlet.

Those friends thou hast and their adoption tried Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel But do not dull thy palm with entertainment Of each new-hatch'd unfledg'd comrade.- what does it mean?

This is a line from Hamlet and is spoken by Polonius upon his death. It's a pretty straight forward quote but I'll translate it really quickly "The friends that you have, and who you have gone through great challenges with, hold them close to you forever. Don't throw these people aside for each new "friend" you meet because they havent earned your trust" The above answer is incorrect. It is from Hamlet and it is spoken by Polonius. However, it was spoken to Polonius's son Laertes, as he was leaving to return to France after the wedding of Claudius to Gertrude. The speech contains the more famous lines, "Neither borrower nor a lender be..." (1,iii). The speech is a troubling one as it comes from a father imparting advice to a son who has already been living abroad and the advice seems unnecessary since Laertes is already independent. As well, the speech is at times filled with insights, however the character of Polonius is revealed later to be untrusting and he actually sends a spy to find out how Laertes is really living. Polonius encourages the spy to use entrapment techniques to get the real news about on Laertes. So although the speech is filled with memoriable advice, I cannot help but consider the source. Polonius dies later in act three while spying on Hamlet in his mother's closet. He dies being a very foolish, old and ingratiating character.
