What purpose do the soliloquies that Hamlet delivers over the course of the play serve? What do readers and audience members learn about Hamlet from what he says in these speeches?
@Isry
"The soliloquies that Hamlet delivers over the course of the play are of prime importance because they give the audience a direct look at what is going on inside the mind of the tortured Prince. The soliloquies speak to the internal struggles he is dealing with about the nature of life, death and all that lies in-between. An important purpose of Hamlet’s soliloquies is to allow the audience to grasp a deeper understanding of the character and his internal battles. Readers and audience members learn a lot about Hamlet through the soliloquies he delivers— his “oh, that this too, too sullied Flesh would melt” soliloquy is when audience members and readers truly begin to understand the depth of his sadness and torment over the untimely death of his father. he also learn that Hamlet is torn apart by his mother’s choice to marry his uncle only two months a³er the death of his father."
