What is happening when Gertrude says to hamlet alas how is with you that you do bend your eye on vacancy and with the incorporal air do hold discourse?

Hamlet is talking to the ghost of his father. Unfortunately for him, on this occasion, the ghost is visible and audible to Hamlet but not to anyone else, particularly Gertrude, who is sitting right beside him. She sees Hamlet talking to empty space, and asks him why he is looking at and talking to nothing. She is convinced that he's nuts: "This is the very coinage of your brain."


Why does Hamlet extract an oath from horatio and the others about the ghost?

He tells Horatio in 3,2 "Give me that man that is not passion's slave and I shall wear him in my heart's core, ay, in my heart of heart--as I do thee." He admires Horatio's calm and Stoic nature which is such a contrast to Hamlet's passionate and mercurial temperament.

What were the events in the play hamlet?

Hamlet's friends get him to watch out for his father's ghost, who he sees. The ghost tells him that he was murdered by Hamlet's uncle who has since married his former sister-in-law and become king. While Hamlet is deciding what to do, he runs into a travelling acting company, who he gets to put on a play which looks a lot like the murder the ghost describes. The King's reaction tells Hamlet that the ghost was telling the truth and he goes off to kill the King. He finds him, but does not want to kill him while he is praying. Instead he verbally abuses his mother and, hearing a noise in the curtains, kills who is behind it. Unfortunately it is not the king, but the king's advisor who also happens to be the father of Hamlet's girlfriend Ophelia. The king sends Hamlet away to England, and while he is gone, Ophelia goes crazy and dies, and her brother Laertes vows revenge on Hamlet. A fencing match is arranged at which Laertes is to murder Hamlet, but it does not turn out well: Hamlet is fatally poisoned all right, but he kills Laertes and the king while his mother dies after drinking a poisoned drink meant for Hamlet. At the end of the play the stage is covered in corpses.
