How can reading fiction help you understand others? Use Hamlet as an example to explore your own thinking process and reactions to a character's innermost thoughts/struggles.
Through reading fiction, the reader becomes the maker of theme. For each person, a novel's theme will change because each person has a different story that they've lived through and can relate different parts of a character to themselves. Hamlet is a teenager like us and his scheming is unparalleled to that of most people's. Hamlet has all this stress on him, with the death of his father, the betrayal of his mother, and the coming into power of a despicable uncle, how can he not want the weight of the world off his shoulders? Right no, that's what it feels like. We have applications, school, scholarships, this an that and it just keeps going on and on. Maybe Hamlet will teach us ways to release the prrssure without exploding.
