conflicting vengence
I do agree that with hamlets hesitation. Anyone in such a conflict would hesitate as well. yes we all would seek revenge on the man who killed our father, but at what cost? how many of us would kill our uncle if he was responsible for the murder? Hamlet also would not want to reward his fathers killer if his own father is stuck in purgatory. if he were to kill Claudius while he is praying and send him to heaven while his own father (who was wrongly killed) cannot go to heaven. so i agree that someone who killed his own brother for a crown, a Queen, and a kingdom should be severely punished. so to kill him as be bathes in his sin that he sold his soul for, will send him to hell and complete hamlets revenge.
