Hamlet, in contrast, is an individual with depth, who suffers from insecurity, and a sense of absurdity. As we see him at the beginning of the play he is suffering from melancholy, not only from the death of his father, but also from 'the moral shock of the sudden ghostly disclosure of his mother's true nature' [1]. Hamlet is psychologically real, and in my view while Vindice's vengeance is all expressed outwards, Hamlet, as a man and as a revenger, shifts from an external struggle for vengeance to an internal one. Hamlet is searching deep into his soul for explanations and resolutions. Hamlet retains some integrity, or at least sincerity of purpose, even at the close of the play.
