Why is Hamlet a victim of circumstance?

His father dies because his uncle killed him and his mother ends up marrying his uncle. Also Polonius tells Ophelia that she can't be with him even though Gertrude wants Hamlet to marry Ophelia. Hamlet stabs at someone hiding behind the curtains and it just happens to be his girlfriend's father. He is sent to England to be killed and he happens to look at the orders which tell him he is to be killed. Then the ship just happens to be attacked by pirates who take him back to Denmark.


What does Hamlet think is the reason most people will not kill themselves?

Hamlet's famous soliloquy asks the question, what happens after death, and Hamlet's guesses and presumptions are not at all comforting. He likens it to a dream state, and asks, "what dreams?" -- rather a disturbing question. As such, he pains suicide as an uneasy choice at best.

Why does the king send Hamlet to England?

Claudius is concerned that Hamlet knows the truth about how he killed King Hamlet and has been watching Hamlet since he killed the king. When Hamlet kills Polonius he sees how unstable Hamlet is and that he can not take the chance and let Hamlet stay, which would risk his own safety. Claudius sends Hamlet to England so that on the way he can have him killed and he would no longer have to worry about the problem that is Hamlet.
