In Act 5 Scene 1, Hamlet says, "To what base uses we may return, Horatio!" (5.1.209) and "Imperious Caesar, dead and turned to clay / might stop a hole to keep the wind away," (5.1.220-1) but in Act 5 Scene 2, he says, "...there's a divinity that shapes our ends..." (5.2.11). Has Hamlet's outlook changed? If so, what facilitates the change?
Do Rosencrantz and Guildenstern deserve what Hamlet does to them?
Why does Hamlet's attitude towards Laertes change?
At the end of the play are Hamlet and Laertes more similar or more different than they were at the beginning?
Is Fortinbras's response to Hamlet's death surprising? Why or why not?
