In Hamlet by William Shakespeare Yorick has been dead for 23 years Hamlet knew him when Hamlet was a child Hamlet is 17 this makes no sense?
Who says Hamlet is 17? The gravedigger says (V,i, 150) that he started work as a gravedigger "the very day young Hamlet was born", and later (V,i, 164) "I have been sexton here, man and boy, thirty years". Which means of course that Hamlet is 30.
What techniques does Shakespeare use to speed the pace of Hamlet in Act IV?
In my view, the pace of Hamlet slows down in Act IV after the frenetic Act III. Hamlet gets to be offstage for a while (being on the boat to England), a welcome relief for the actor playing him no doubt. In the meantime, we hear a lot about Ophelia and Laertes. Ophelia is nuts and we pause to reflect on that. Although Laertes bursts into the palace with the intention of revenge upon Claudius, for the most part the scenes with Laertes are plotting and talk, talk, talk. The movement of the story is held up as the characters discuss their situation and prepare for what is to come in Act V: Hamlet's return.
