Ophelia is a character who is manipulated by almost every other character in the play at some point or another. She is manipulated by her father and Claudius as they use her to try and bait Hamlet. They make her return the gifts he had given her and when she is yelled at by Hamlet they just watch and make no effort to relieve her of the trauma. She is manipulated by Hamlet, as he told her he loved her and then either in madness, faked madness, or sincerity took it all back and screamed at her. This drives her into a madness, escalated by her father's death, that leaves her helpless and leads to her drowning. Shakespeare, through the way the characters treat Ophelia and the result of her eventual death, is recognizing the lack of power that women have and how sometimes they were barely even treated like people, more like pawns in a chess match.
