Hamlet

The trust that a person has in his friends and family is paramount to a healthy life and quality relationships. Once this trust is broken or betrayed, a person's security can be shattered, leaving him doubtful and insecure about all aspects of life. When betrayal of trust is coupled with a sinister action like murder, a person can lose all sense of right and wrong and react in ways that protect himself from those he feels betrayed by, which is what Maynard Mack is trying to say in his statement about Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, "The young man growing up is not to be allowed simply to endure a rotten world, he must also act in it."

Hamlet was forced to this action of forgery out of self-preservation. At the center of all of the mistrust and evil in Hamlet's life is his uncle, the new King and his step-father, Claudius. Hamlet knows that he cannot trust the man who so eagerly took the throne and his late brother's wife. Hamlet has every cause to be uneasy about his uncle. Besides the ghost telling Hamlet the truth, Claudius reacts so emotionally to the play a

Unfortunately, Hamlet knows from the beginning that he cannot trust his mother. Not only has she quickly married his uncle so soon after his father's, her husband's death, but she also seems to be happy about this new relationship. "Such an act/ That blurs the grace and blush of modesty,/ Calls virtue hypocrite, takes off the rose/ From the fair forehead of an innocent love/ And sets a blister, there, makes marriage vows/ As false as dicers' oaths-O, such a deed/As from
