Read the excerpt from Hamlet, Act I, Scene i. Marcellus: What! has this thing appear’d again to-night? Bernardo: I have seen nothing. Marcellus: Horatio says ’tis but our fantasy, And will not let belief take hold of him Touching this dreaded sight twice seen of us: Therefore I have entreated him along With us to watch the minutes of this night; What is the effect of this dialogue? It creates an air of suspense in the plot. It shows how angry the characters are. It describes details of the castle setting. It entertains through the use of clever wording.

Nessa. This is not a poem. This is an act. And this scene creates an air of suspense when everyone wants to if it was just a fantasy or reality. Was it a murder or just a tragic death and hence they are watching over the night to see if the repeated dreams are real or just a delusion

thoughfulsky:

Also nessa just to enlighten u, an act is like a literary stage of play where the characters come alive and have first person conversation

They have their dialogues in set up scenes. A whole different works is built up
