3. What do you think is the dominant quality of Hamlet’s character? Discuss with suitable examples.

Ans:

Hamlet, the protagonist of William Shakespeare's famous play "Hamlet," is one of the most complex characters in literature. His character is multifaceted and has been interpreted in various ways by critics and readers over the centuries. However, one quality that is often considered to be dominant in Hamlet's character is his indecisiveness.

Hamlet's indecisiveness is evident throughout the play. He is constantly plagued by doubts and uncertainties, which prevent him from taking action. For example, when he first learns about his father's murder, he is shocked and outraged. However, he does not immediately take revenge on his father's killer, his uncle, King Claudius. Instead, he spends most of the play brooding over his thoughts and pondering the nature of revenge. He even contemplates suicide, as he cannot decide whether it is better to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune or to take arms against a sea of troubles.............
