In scene 2 what does Polonius tell Claudius and Gertrude is the cause of Hamlet's madness?

Hamlet is love-sick with Ophelia and is mad since he isn't able to see her anymore.


When did hamlet intrude into ophelia private quarters?

Hamlet breaks into Ophelia's chamber sometime near the beginning of Act II. We cannot tell exactly when because it happens offstage. However, it appears that Ophelia has rushed straight from the incident to tell her father, so Hamlet must have been in there when Polonius is talking to Reynaldo.


What does polonius tell claduis and Gertrude?

Polonius tells Claudius and Gertrude that Ophelia and Hamlet have had a relationship which Polonius had Ophelia break off, and that this might be the cause of Hamlet's wild behaviour.


Why does Ophelia come to see her father after her encounter with Hamlet?

They are not. Gertrude does say that she hoped Ophelia and Hamlet would marry, but she didn't bother saying that while Ophelia was alive, so she was hardly eager. Polonius told Ophelia to give Hamlet the cold shoulder, since he thought Hamlet was only trying to get into her pants. He did not want Hamlet to fall for Ophelia at all (and he sure didn't think he would do so), but he comes to the conclusion later that Hamlet has in fact fallen in love with Ophelia. He's not exactly happy about that, but what he is happy about is that he can 1) be the first to tell the king, thus making him look smart, and 2) use Ophelia as bait to find out more about Hamlet.

What are some questions to ask Hamlet?

Some unanswered questions in Hamlet are: Does Hamlet truly go "mad" or is it all an act? Does it matter? Why doesn't anybody dislike Claudius even though he's a murderer? Did Gertrude play a part in Hamlet's father's death? Does the ghost of Hamlet's father tell him not to blame Gertrude, Hamlet's mother? Does Hamlet love Ophelia? Is Hamlet in love with his mother? If he is in love with his mother is he also still in love with Ophelia?


What does Ophelia tell Claudius about hamlet?

Assuming you are talking about Act II, Ophelia describes how Hamlet came to her chamber, looking disheveled and unkempt, looking depressed, unable to speak, but looked at her, sighed, and wandered away, distracted.


How did Ophelia feel about Polonius's death in Hamlet?

She was blown away by it. Polonius was her father, and she had relied on him almost totally to tell her what to do.


Why did Hamlet tell ophelia to join a nunnery?

Nuns cannot marry so Hamlet wanted Ophelia to stay away from him and he did'nt want to be married to her. Another possibility was Ophelia could have been pregnant. During this time women who became pregnant went to nunneries when they started to show. They didnt want anyone to know they were pregnant.


Who tells ophelia to get to a nunnery?

Ophelia is definitely very hurt by what Hamlet has said. Hamlet saying such a phrase only further pushes Ophelia's feeling that she was cheated by Hamlet, that the love they had together earlier was not real.


What plan do the king and polonius devise to test whether or not this cause of hamlets conduct is love for ophelia?

To spy on him. First of all he wants to spy on him when interacting with Ophelia, and when this fails to support his theory, he wants to spy on him while interacting with Gertrude.


Why is polonius so eager to tell Claudius and Gertrude that hamlet is in love with his daughter?

Polonius never explicitly states what he feels about a marriage between Hamlet and Ophelia. In the play, Polonius urges Ophelia to stop interacting with Hamlet because he believes that Hamlet's duty to the royal family would not allow him to marry Ophelia despite what the young couple feels for each other. Basically, he doesn't believe a marriage between the two is even possible, so he's not "eager" for her to marry Hamlet.
