shakespear

The basic definition of the word "rash" is haste, lack of deliberation or caution. This means that one would be "exposing oneself to danger more than required by good sense; imprudence and lack of forethought." In the play Hamlet, we observe the main character (Hamlet) acting in a rash manner (or so we think) numerous times.

The first instance Hamlet acts "impulsive or rash" is in Act III, scene iv. line 27. Hamlet had just slain Polonius, thinking it was Claudius. He heard a noise from behind his mother's curtain, and figured that Claudius was hiding behind it listening to their conversation. He thought this because the King is the only one allowed in the Queen's bedroom, therefore the intruder HAD to be Claudius. He knew that this would be the best time to kill Claudius because he wasn't sure if he could do it before, and he could just do it without thinking, and be done with the whole thing . (the Queen)" Oh, what a rash and bloody deed this is!" (Hamlet) "A bloody deed! Almost as bad, good mother, As kill a king, and marry with his brother...(after he finds that he didn't kill Claudius but killed Polonius, he continues) Thou wretched, rash, intruding fool, farewell!" Hamlet was saying that Polonius was a fool for


got what he deserved. Hamlet was explaining to his mother what happened with his father's death and how Claudius was involved; something that only Hamlet knew about. I believe that yes, Hamlet did act on impulses when killing Polonius, but after the deed had been done, really felt no real remorse. Hamlet blurted the truth about what had happened, full of frustration and rage. All his anger and hostility came rushing out and he couldn't control himself or what he said. Even though this was the truth, it was said in a rash manner. The reason the ghost appeared was to take revenge on his killer. Even though Hamlet Sr. would not be the one to avenge his OWN death, he told his son (thinking that Jr. Would do something about this). The death of Hamlet Sr. was executed in a rash manner, because if Claudius had thoroughly planned out the destruction of the king, he would have realized that even though the plan seemed foolproof, somehow things wouldn't work out. Hamlet'!

Hamlet also acts "rash" is in Act V, scene I line 261. (Hamlet) "Thou pray'st not well. I prithee take thy fingers from my throat... (Laertes has his hands around Hamlet's throat, because he lost his sister Ophelia, and felt that Hamlet was somehow not being respectf
