What is ironic about Claudius telling Hamlet You are the most immediate to our throne?
People who expect the monarchy to pass by primogeniture (as the English monarchy does and did in Shakespeare's day) would expect Prince Hamlet to have been the heir to King Hamlet. Thus it is ironic for Claudius to say that Hamlet is most immediate to Claudius's throne because by the rules of primogeniture, Claudius has usurped and Claudius should be the most immediate to Hamlet's throne. There is a further irony in that in fact in Denmark at the time, the rules of primogeniture did not apply and Claudius would indeed have been the rightful heir, especially having married the widow of the previous king, but the audience, thinking they know better, would consider him to be a usurper.

Conflict between man and man, wouldn't you say? Can you make an argument for it being between man and nature? Do you think Hamlet and Claudius are the same person?

The line "O, your offense is rank; it smells to heaven" is spoken by King Claudius in Shakespeare's play Hamlet.
