Hamlet and Death

After his fathers murder, he is overwhelmed with the thought of death also throughout the play he looks at death through many different prospectives. Hamlet duels on the spiritual aftermath of death closely relating to the ghost, and also the actual body of his father. Just the thought or idea of death teally tied the themes of truth, emotional and the fact that hamlet thought death was the answer to some of his inmost questions.
Also in hamlet death is both the cause and consequence of revenge. And the theme that is closely tied to death and revenge is Justice. Claudius felt he was doing justice by killing hamlets father and sleeping with his wife which is incest but in the play this is evident that’s what he wanted to do
